Layered patterned textile remnants wrap this straight piece of foraged driftwood, accented with a naturally shed bluebird feather. The form is steady and linear, resting cleanly in the hand with a grounded, composed presence.
 
Each Talking Stick begins with a foraged piece of wood chosen for its natural form and character. This piece has been wrapped by hand using layered fabric remnants, allowing texture and material to guide the final composition.
 
These are contemporary symbolic objects inspired by the idea of honoring voice and attentive listening. They are not replicas of any specific ceremonial tool, but personal art objects meant to encourage presence, respect, and intentional communication.
 
They may be used in creative circles, group conversations, personal reflection, or displayed in a home or studio as a reminder to speak with care and listen with intention.
