The boglands of Ireland are a vast living treasure trove for a precious and unique material. Bog wood, more ancient than the pyramids of Egypt and the prehistoric monuments of Newgrange, has been naturally preserved, and has lain hidden for over 5,000 years.The Celtic Roots Studio near Athlone in Co Westmeath creates the most exquisite bogwood sculptures. Each piece is uniquely designed and sculpted by hand from age old bog oak, yew and pine that have lain hidden beneath the bogs and have come to the surface as a result of turf cutting.The elegant and dramatic forms created by the young artists at the studio are a celebration of both our rich Irish heritage and the unique landscape and atmosphere of our boglands. Each sculpture is painstakingly worked on by the artist to release its form and to bring forth a wondrous release of life with its natural and powerful colour, lines and grains. As each item is a natural formation items may vary slighty.
