Studio Greytak 'Wenge Glacier Screen' Brazilian Agate, Iron and Wenge Wood

About the Item

WENGE GLACIER SCREEN Studio Greytak’s Wenge Glacier Screen combines 12 of the finest Brazilian agates with sustainably harvested wenge wood. Both the colorful agates and the tropical wenge are known to provide protection and bring balance. Solid black iron frames and grounds the piece, providing an earthy harmony. All together, they create an impressive screen that filters both light and energy. Brazilian agate is considered some of the best agate in the world. When lava reaches Earth’s surface, it bubbles as it cools forming pockets of air. Over centuries, water trickles through fractures in the rock, depositing silica gel on the cavity walls which hardens into concentric bands. Changes in the water’s mineral composition create different layers and colors. Agates have a slow vibrational frequency, which makes them very calming. For centuries they have been used to protect mothers and children during pregnancy and to cleanse and stabilize auras. Brazilian agate, in particular, balances physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual energy, bringing calm, strength, focus, confidence, and positivity. The wenge tree forced craftsmen in the Sub-Saharan belt of Africa to work harder and longer for its valuable timber. Only fire could penetrate the dense wood and prepare it for harvest. Workers then had to strip the charred outer layers to get to useful material. But wenge called for still more patience. The longer they waited, the more beautiful the wood would look, the curing process slowly revealing wenge’s deep, rich color and striking, fine grain. The slow, methodical approach the tree requires is a reflection of its energy, one of thoughtfulness, balance, focus, and spirituality. So spiritual, in fact, that many cultures in the region used it to create masks for ceremonies and rites of passage. Wenge will help those in its presence experience a balanced mood and seek wisdom. Formed by fusion in the cores of stars, iron is the last element produced when energy is released from the violent collapse of supernovas, which scatter iron throughout space. Brought to earth in meteorites, the most ancient iron known to humans literally fell from the sky. Like its role in defending our planet, iron deflects negative energy from our fields. The ultimate warrior of light, it increases physical strength and gives energy and vitality. Place the Wenge Glacier Screen in front of large windows to filter sun and shadow, leaving peace of mind and a tranquil sense of security. Studio Greytak's Wenge Glacier Screen is similar to the Studio Greytak Black Walnut Screen that was recently featured in the Truth in Decorating Section of the September Issue of Elle Decor.
