Known as the Fairy Tree, the alder carries an air of quiet magic. When cut, its wood turns from white to red, as though it were bleeding—a vivid reminder of its living essence.
Often found with its roots dipping into streams, the alder enriches the surrounding landscape with vital nutrients. Its unusual resistance to decay make this devoted guardian of rivers and wetlands a symbol of resilience and healing, even in the muckiest and most challenging environments.
In this moss-toned wool, both the surface and the hue of our hand-embroidered cushion recall the depth of ancient woodlands, where symbol and craft find their origin.
In the Ogham alphabet, the alder corresponds to the letters F/V.
