Full description

This listing is for a single GREEN MAN Coaster. Hand-carved into Natural Slate it can be bought individually or as a set, just add to your basket however many you would like in your set! Or check out my other designs and make a mixed set, just specify how many of each you would like when you order! If you have any requests of designs that you would like to see made then just ask!

The Green Man motif has many variations. Found in many cultures around the world, the Green Man is often related to natural vegetative deities springing up in different cultures throughout the ages. Primarily it is interpreted as a symbol of rebirth, or "renaissance", representing the cycle of growth each spring. As a fan of the 'Game of Thrones' books and series I also find that the look of the Green Man reminds me a lot of the Old Gods, faces carved onto the trees.

They are wax-finished and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth (it's a good idea to re-wax them every month or so with some beeswax/furniture wax and a soft cloth). They have felt stickers on the back in order to prevent them from scratching the surface of your table.

Everything that I make from stone is hand carved using a mallet and chisel before being sanded, polished and waxed also by hand. This takes time so please allow up to two weeks for delivery as each item is made to order. I will keep you updated as to the progress of your order.

If you are buying for a present or need it earlier then get in touch!
