This wooden suncatcher is inscribed with lines from the W B Yeats poem The Cat and The Moon written in 1917. The lines read "Do you dance Minnaloushe, do you dance, Where two kindred spirits meet",

Handcrafted by our friends at Artwood in Co. Leitrim, using ethically and locally sourced Irish wood and high-quality Egyptian Asfour crystals , when hung in a window the sunlight catches the crystal, which acts as a prism and disperses rainbows all around your room. A truly romantic Irish gift for Weddings, Engagements, Valentines Day, or Anniversaries.

Approx. 13cm in length.

Because all wood is unique and varies slightly, your suncatcher may differ slightly from the above images in this listing.

About the Artist

Artwood is the innovative creation of Giolla Liddy and Emily Sachs-Eldridge. The Irish family craft business they are so proud of began with a spark - or a sparkle you might say - of inspiration, in 2013.

Giolla worked alongside his father as a carpenter for many years, Emily as a trained organic horticulturist worked at farmers markets selling organic vegetables.

One day Emily brought home a crystal for hanging in their window. It was decorated with some small plastic beads but Emily only wanted the crystal. Giolla looked at the crystal and thought “I could do something nice with that”. He took it out to his workshop and later that evening their first Suncatcher was born.

A trial run of of samples of the new design at the Christmas Market was overwhelmingly positive and in May 2014 Giolla and Emily decided to officially set up Artwood as an Irish family craft business.
