Celtic Cross Yew Cookie Slice

Carved by hand from Irish yew, a tree long regarded as sacred, protective, and eternal, this Celtic cross is not merely an object but a moment captured in wood. Yew has been revered in Ireland for thousands of years—found in ancient churchyards, holy places, and burial grounds—symbolising continuity, memory, and the bridge between worlds. To work with yew is to work with history itself.

Every knot, twist of grain, and natural marking within the wood has been intentionally honoured rather than erased. The form of this cross was shaped as much by the character of the yew as by the hand that carved it, meaning the design could never be recreated. Even with the same tools, the same maker, and the same intention, this piece cannot and will not exist again.

This is the only artwork of its kind.

There is no second version, no series, no reproduction, and no possibility of another being made. Once this piece leaves the studio, it becomes part of a private collection forever.

As a collector’s piece, this carving stands apart: a true one-off made from a native Irish tree, carrying both cultural and spiritual significance. It is the kind of work that becomes an heirloom—something to be lived with, passed down, and spoken about. Displayed on a wall, resting on a shelf, or mounted on a door, it brings a quiet authority and depth that mass-produced art simply cannot offer.

This is not décor.

This is not repeatable.

This is Irish yew, Irish heritage, and a single moment in time—carved once, and only once.

Only one available. When it’s gone, it’s gone.
