Weird and wonderful ironstone hagstone from the coast of the Isle of Wight. This hagstone looks to me like a male torso. It has one main hole, and the ‘bellybutton’ is also a tiny hole that goes all the way through. Some of these stones are bonkers, and I don’t really understand how they form in these shapes.
This chunkier hagstone is just under an inch and a half long and I have added a macrame hanging loop to it and threaded it onto an adjustable length woven cotton cord with black lava stone, wood and little coconut shell beads.
These amazing hagstones are one of my favourite things to find, but they come from a beach which is quite hard to get to, so I don’t go there very often. When I do I can easily spend hours looking, and usually come away with a few good specemins. Ironstone comes in some weird and wonderful shapes. It forms through concretion and can sometimes have multiple holes running through it in different directions. I am not sure ones like this form anywhere else in the world!
All the items in this shop are handmade by me with great love and great care, mostly in my little studio on the Isle of Wight, a beautiful little island off the south coast of England (sometimes I sit and make them on the beach too). This item is one of a kind and you will always be be sent the one in the pictures.
All items have free shipping unless specifically stated otherwise. Usually shipped within three business days using Royal Mail.
Thank you for looking. Peace.
