A sea shell naturally holed by the ocean waters, a bone from a horse's tail, an ox bone skull bead for the underworld, a piece of a bird's wing stitched with toad skin, an adder stone (naturally holed stone), and brass bells engraved with tree runes (bells call familiar spirits) - all braided and knotted onto genuine deer sinew. For hedgecrossing between worlds whether travelling by sea, fresh water, land, or sky.
