MOLD 010
Symbol: The symbol on this mold is well over 2000 years old. It is called rodimich (from the Russian rod - kin; Rod is also the god of kin, it was represented with erect statues - thence the word "rod" in English!). This symbol signifies the wisdom of ancestors coming down to posterity, family wisdom preserved through generations. This symbol makes the mold exceptionally good fit for a meaningful family heirloom. Noteworthy, when you press a cookie with it, you will get a symbol which is a mirror reflection of rodimich and is called svarozhich (from the Russian Svarog - God the Creator) and maintains life and diversity of living forms in our Universe.
Wood: sassafras (Sassafras albidum). Sassafras, a tree in the Laurel family, has extremely fragrant wood. This mold has a lasting exquisite smell of wintergreen and natural beeswax. The mold is traditionally treated: held over live fire (to slightly tan & burn the surface of the mold to highlight the beautiful symbolic pattern and natural beauty of sassafras wood), permeated with 100% natural beeswax (to seal wood's pores and make it waterproof and durable), and covered with 100% organic food grade linseed oil (to add a glossy shiny look).
Dimensions: 6 x 7 x 1 in (15,3 x 17,6 x 2,6 cm).
