Now that is actually the necklace I wear every day.
The left pedant is another axe, inspired by the great Mammen Axe. In the middle there is a tree pendant, but another version of it. Where the hole in the trunk is there used to be an amber - but I lost it. What a shame...
All made of plum wood.
Note: This is the color the wood gets when it's worn a long time, the wood shades a lot.

Thanks for the fav! :]
And it's only coated with linseed oil one time, after that the wood shades a lot while wearing it

Aye, I can imagine that... Simple oil is the best in my opinion, try it! :)

Well, mainly a driller (is it called so in English?) with different equipment, similiar to these tools dentists use to grind teeth, fast spinning. I hope you understand, what I mean *laugh* And, of course, a wood saw, sand paper, wood rasper and a soldering iron (for the black lines of the axe in the right, better to be seen here: [link] )
Thanks a lot, I never expected to get feedback this good :]
