Mold 041: CEDAR CONE
Symbol: The Siberian cedar cone symbolizes the power of life. This mold is specifically designed to bake honey cakes with addition of pine nut flour and pine nut oil from the Siberian cedar (but of course it can work with any flour as well). This mold is inspired by the world-wide mega-bestseller book on the spiritual link between humans and Nature, "The Ringing Cedars". (To learn more about this fascinating book that inspired millions of people, see publisher's web-site www.RingingCedars.com ). It is after these books about The Ringing Cedar that our web-site is named.
Wood: basswood (Tilia americana). Basswood is one of the favorite woodcarving woods, celebrated for its durability, uniform grain and ease of woodcarving. This is one of the most popular woods traditionally used in Russian woodcarving. The mold is also traditionally treated: permeated with 100% natural beeswax (to seal wood's pores, make it waterproof and durable, and highlight the natural beauty and intensity of color of the wood), and hand rubbed with 100% organic food grade linseed oil (to add a glossy shiny look).
Dimensions: 3 7/8 x 5 7/8 x 1 3/8 in (9,5 x 14,5 x 3,5 cm).
