Jordens smykke, Earth's Jewellery

 "Ganga undir jarðar-men" 

Was a rite where the participants went beneath turf which they then lifted up on spears;

they called these lumps of earth "the jewellry of the earth".

The intention must have been a symbolic contact with the underworld and a rebirth.

Made in smoked oak and handmade glass in an ancient Italian technique called “Battuto”.
