Tapa Boca, Stop Gossip, Conjure Nails

Tapa boca nails, used for hex work intended for stopping gossip, quenched in crossing oil and forged from horseshoe nails that are commonly sold as coffin nails.

We work with the philosophy of folk magic and alchemy in our blacksmithing of iron talismans, by in the quench lends its virtues to the iron when hot and fixes them within the iron philosophically as the quench crystalizes and takes the hot iron from being mutable to fixed. These are practices being revived by Troll Cunning Forge. After the quench is completed the infused oils or quench is cleansed from the iron and there is no longer any plant material or in this case oils, left upon the iron. It is non toxic and safe to handle. However the virtues of the plant or various materials used in the quench are philosophically fixed within the Iron from this point forward, according to traditional alchemical philosophy. The nails can be used to curse in a myriad of different ways, or as an apotropaic charm, and as always these are mere examples and the only limit to their utility is your skill and occult creativity.

*Sold as a set of three nails.

These nails are sold as a curio only, we make no claims.

**All items made by troll cunning forge are a work of art and not a work of fabrication in a factory. Each is uniquely made and roughly based upon the design provided in the items photos. Each may have its unique features that make yours completely different from what was made for another. This ensures that what is made for you is made for you and not another. It also allows the blacksmith to not feel that he is a machine in a factory but a creator and artisan. Etsy does not allow for much wiggle room when large and or multiple orders are made in one day, one order can require an extra week to fill, So one can imagine if one receives multiple orders of this size in one day that it can slow down make times by several weeks. Please keep in mind no one wants you to receive your order more than I do.
