Celebrate the beautiful bond of your family with a truly unique, organic art piece. Hand-carved in County Westmeath by Bog Buddies, this premium 'Our Family of 3' framed turf carving features three whimsical family figures sculpted from genuine, 5,000-year-old Irish peat turf. Representing the strength and unity of your family unit, this customized piece is set against a soft cream mount in a dark-wash wooden frame under protective glass.
Because Irish bogs are natural keepers of history, using this ancient, textured peat turf is a beautiful way to ground your family's story in the timeless soil of Ireland. Every figure is individually shaped by hand and fired at a high temperature, ensuring that no two pieces are ever identical. The horizontal 10 x 7 inch frame features a versatile layout that can represent any combination: two adults and a child, two mothers and a child, two fathers and a child, or a single parent with two children. It is fully fitted for easy wall hanging or mantel display.

An exceptional choice for new baby gifts, housewarmings, Mother's Day, Father's Day, or family anniversaries, this authentic Irish-made keepsake is built to become a cherished heirloom. To make it completely yours, an artisan will handwrite each family member's name directly under their corresponding figure, with a family surname or special message scripted at the top at no extra charge.
Story & Significance
The Irish boglands are mystical, living landscapes that have blanketed the country's interior for over fifty centuries. To the ancient Celts, bogs were sacred transition spaces between the earthly world and the spiritual realm. The turf harvested from these bogs has warmed Irish hearths for generations, symbolising family continuity, survival, and deep ancestral connection.
Carving family figures from this ancient peat turf connects your household directly to that enduring heritage. It serves as a beautiful physical representation of your family's strength, representing a bond that—like the Irish turf—is deeply rooted in the earth, organic, and built to weather any storm.

FAQs
Where do you ship this item?
This item currently ships to Ireland and Northern Ireland only.
How long does it take to dispatch?
Allow around 5 business days for processing before dispatch.
Can I personalise it?
Yes. Add optional names and any layout notes for the three family figures.
Can this frame accommodate different family structures?
Yes, absolutely! The figures are versatile and can represent any combination of three people (e.g., two moms and a child, two dads and a child, single parent with two children, or three siblings). Simply specify your desired layout in the customization notes.
Where are the names written?
An artisan will handwrite each family member's name in elegant, dark-ink script directly underneath their corresponding turf figure on the mount board. You can also specify an optional family name or phrase to be written at the top of the mount.
Is the turf fragile?
No. While peat turf is naturally organic, Bog Buddies carefully dries, shapes, and fires each piece at high temperatures to seal and protect it. Housed behind gallery glass, it is highly durable and designed to last a lifetime.
