Shamrock & Ireland Turf Decoration

Do you know what turf is?  Turf is a traditional solid fuel in Ireland, comprised of decomposed twigs, grass, etc.  In rural Ireland everyone in the family worked the bog, to heat our happy home. 

This involved cutting, drying, and bagging the turf, and then putting it in the shed, ready for use. 

To my amazement, there is a man in Co. Tyrone, who instead of throwing the turf in the fire, is crafting beautiful products from it!  This Shamrock decoration, with the word Ireland carefully carved beneath the Shamrock, is an excellent example of this. 

Take a little piece history, and a literal little piece of Ireland, home today!

Design elements of this Turf Shamrock Decoration are:

• Approx. 3 5/8" tall
