Hand Carved All Natural Lotus Blossom Marble Fidget Spinner

€40.00

Utterly unique and one of a kind!

 

Beautiful carved Lotus blossom on one side, a deep gentle circle curves on the other side. The green on green cats-eye marble has a tightish action and slightly wonky marble which gives resistance as you use the spinner.

 

The combo of firm action and beautiful flower pattern delights both eyes and hands.

 

Aiding in finger mobility as well as proven to help calm and relax, fidgets really are for everyone!

 

As a fidget is designed to be held and played with, I only add color deep into the carved lines, so the color will last, no matter how much you use it. Pearlescent watercolors give an added touch of sparkle and then the entire piece is oiled and buffed to a rich glow.

 

This one smells extra nice because I enfused nutmeg into my mineral oil because scent is as important as sight.

 

The world has enough plastic in it, and I love spinners, and could find NOTHING natural when I wanted to treat myself to one so I invented these, a fidget that does nothing but good in the world.

 

The wood I carved this one from is most likely eucalyptus, locally grown and cut sometime in the mid to late 1800s.

 

Currently we are renovating an ancient property in the mountains of Portugal which is the source of the wood I'm using for making fidgets and fidget spinners. The wood is from the kitchen loft and as the house is old enough to still have an open hearth in the kitchen and Roman pottery sherds in the floor, this place (and the wood in it) has been around for awhile.

 

As the wood is so old, it has buckets of character in the form of deeply embedded smoke, knots, beetle holes and places I've pulled ancient nails (most of them hand forged) free, each and every fidget is a unique and beautiful work of art, taking as long to sand to satiny smoothness as they do to carve.
