Redux:
Sometimes called #HagStones the #CunningFolk of the island called them #CroneStones.
The #SeaCrone will give them as gifts; tradition dictates that if you find one then collect it if you know someone who needs it, otherwise leave it be.
They are imbued with the deepest of magics; they can ward off evil and be used as a #talisman. When looked through, they can give vision to other realms, the future and the past and can give people wisdom and forethought.

Cornish hagstone & key charms. When you spend an inordinate amount of time in intertidal liminal zones you often come across a wide variety of strange things, holed stones (or hagstones, witch stones, fairy stones, etc) seem to have a peculiar habit of finding me. For the life of me I couldn’t tell you why but it’s fairly regular, and making house charms from them is a joy. The hard part is acquiring the iron keys which are highly sought nowadays. #hagstones #folklore #cornwall
