Bullroarers are fantastic items, found throughout history across the world. I have always wanted one and so contacted Kate and Corwen of Ancient Music - they made me one and sent it to me unifinished so that I could burn it!

Their etsy is here: [link]

It is pyrographed with a little tawny owl :heart:

[link] There is an interesting article on them!

Bullroarers basically 'sing' or wail when they are swung overhead in a circle. The sound depends on the shape, size, material etc but can be really loud!
