Very few plants in the world tantalize the senses like lavender. Lavender has been a staple in gardens around the world for centuries. The earliest accounts on record indicate that lavender was used for a multitude of purposes. In medieval times, powdered lavender was used as a condiment and preservative to mask disagreeable flavors. Plants were introduced in England around AD 1265, and cuttings were often used as floor bedding to keep pests away. France has used lavender as a cash crop for the lavender oil industry and produces well in excess of 1,000 tons of lavender essence each year to scent detergents, perfumes, and the like. Commercial lavender production began in North America around 1924 in Seattle, Washington. Since then, interest in lavender production has blossomed. As more people use alternative methods of healing and wellness, lavender is being incorporated due to its wide range of uses in cooking, crafting, and aromatherapy. Lavender wands, also called lavender bottles, were fashioned in Victorian times for scenting drawers and cabinets. Lavender wands allow the scent of the lavender to be encased in ribbon and to be enjoyed for years to come.

This auction is for one fresh, handmade lavender wand. The lavender used in these wands has been grown, cultivated, and picked fresh in Santa Cruz, California. The wands in the picture are representative of the wand you will receive and not the actual wand. Your wand will be made fresh and to order and may range in size from 7 to 9 inches long. You may choose the color of ribbon you wish it to be encased in from the colors shown in the second (badly taken even after multiple trys) photo. Please indicate which color you would prefer: Periwinkle Blue, Violet Purple, Green, Mint Green, or Eggshell.

All Listia rules apply. Please ask questions prior to bidding. Thank you to everyone who checks out my auction and good luck to all who bid on it. Have a beautiful, scent filled day!
