Raidho – Rune of the Journey | Hand-Carved Eucalyptus Pendant

The Raidho rune ᚱ is traditionally associated with journey, travel, movement, and the road through life. In the Elder Futhark, its reconstructed name, raidō, is generally understood as relating to riding or journeying.

This hand-carved pendant takes that ancient symbol and gives it a distinctly Australian character, carved from Australian Blue Gum eucalyptus and shaped into a bold, natural piece of wearable art.

For this creation, Raidho represents the journey ahead, safe passage, movement, direction, and the path we travel through life. It makes a meaningful pendant for someone beginning a new journey, travelling, or simply wanting to carry a reminder of their own path and direction.

The pendant measures 64 × 33 × 4 mm and features a 5 mm dark-brown genuine leather lace, a large cream-coloured wooden bead, and smaller red and yellow beads.

A simple piece with strong symbolism, combining an ancient Nordic rune with Australian timber and handcrafted materials.
