20-Sided Wooden Ogham Dice
Designed by Raven and created in the workshop of a gaming dice maker, these are pretty amazing. A wooden ogham dice with the ogham feda on each of the 20 sides. They are cherry wood and oiled, finished with the ogham in white.
The dice are 3cm in diameter and have a nice weight and roll well. The finish is sturdy and stands up well to be carried in a pocket or bag – the wood will darken with age and use.
After some research, Ogham die might actually be the closest we have to a traditional form of ogham divination or lot casting - bone die have been found with ogham feda on them.
Your die will come to you in one of my small bags made from up-cycled fabric, along with a basic guide sheet. Your dice will be similar, but not identical to that pictured - they are made of natural material and the grain of the wood varies.
These make a fantastic pair with my 24 sided wooden runic dice available now.

What is Ogham?
The Celtic Tree Ogham is an Irish alphabet created to record Primitive Irish. It consists of 20 feda, with an extra 5 forfedha added at a later date. Like the many Runic Alphabets, each Fed (letter/symbol) has meanings associated with it. One such set of associations is with trees – and this is what the Ogham has become best known for. While its uses beyond writing and carving in stone are lost to time, its use in magic has been recorded in Irish mythology and it is likely that it could have been used for divination. Most of the sets made by Greenwomancrafts include the original 20 feda only, with the forfedha being available by commission only.
