This is a nice item, a piece of the tree under which the Irish Poet Thomas Moore (1779-1852) wrote his famous poem "The Meeting of the Waters", which is the well-known beauty spot in the Vale of Avoca in County Wicklow in Ireland. The piece of wood measures just under 4cm in length, and is accompanied by two old handwritten notes in different hands, one is definitely early Victorian written in very old ink on old watermarked paper, the other probably from the early part of the last century. The piece has been kept in an old cardboard box from The Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Company Ltd. This is a lighter item, overseas shipping costs will be reduced accordingly at checkout where possible.
