The Ogham Link

Each of my designs is named and stamped after native Irish trees and plants in the ancient ogham script.

Ogham is an Early Medieval alphabet that was used to write the Old Irish language. It is believed to have been developed in the 4th century AD, making it one of the oldest known writing systems in Europe. The name "ogham" is derived from the Irish language and means "the cutting" or "the incision," which refers to the way the letters were inscribed on stone or wood.

Ogham consisted of a series of straight lines that were drawn vertically or horizontally, with each line representing a different letter. The letters were also distinguished by a series of horizontal, diagonal, or vertical lines that were added to the edges of the vertical or horizontal strokes.

Many ogham characters represent letters, trees and months of year.
