Uruz Pin L056

Also known as "Ur" or "Uthark," the Uruz rune is one of the oldest symbols in runic alphabets, representing the primal and untamed power of the wild ox. With its distinctive "U" shape, Uruz embodies strength, virility, and untamed energy. It signifies the raw vitality of nature, symbolizing the enduring force that drives growth, change, and evolution. Uruz is closely associated with the wild, unpredictable aspects of life, often representing the challenges and obstacles that must be confronted and conquered with inner strength and determination. It serves as a reminder of the resilience needed to navigate life's challenges and harness one's innate power. Uruz is a symbol of transformation, signifying the breaking down of old barriers to pave the way for new beginnings and personal growth. In runic divination, it can signify health, vitality, or the need to tap into one's inner reserves of strength to overcome obstacles.

Craft & construction

Built to stay put. Our pins have two posts and clutches which hold it flat and ensure a spin-free application wherever you display it. It solves a common pin complaint. The 1/4-inch steel tacks are long enough to pass through most fabrics, about 1/4 inch, yet short enough to sit flush. And each clutch seats into a small groove on the post with a firm, satisfying click — haptic feedback that tells you it's locked, and a detail cheaper pins skip.

Certified American pewter. The antiqued finish is completely safe to touch — and the craft behind it has been refined over three decades. Each batch of pewter that arrives at our shop in Port Gamble, WA from an American supplier comes with a lab test showing the material is lead free.

Ready to give. Every item arrives attached to a backing card and sealed in plastic — clean, protected, and presentable as a gift the moment it arrives.
