Anamchara – Irish Soul Friend Ogham Framed Art Print
Anamchara (pronounced ON-um-khor-uh) is Irish for soul friend. It joins anam (soul) and cara (friend). In early Irish Christianity, an anamchara was a trusted companion you could share your deepest self with, someone who knew you completely and walked beside you anyway.
This framed art print writes Anamchara in authentic Ogham, the ancient Irish alphabet carved into standing stones across Ireland from around the 4th century AD. It's a single clean line of Ogham, set above the word and its meaning.
How to read it
Ogham is read from the bottom up, the way it was carved along the edge of a stone:
- A (Ailm): 1 notch across the stem
- N (Nion): 5 strokes to the right
- A (Ailm): 1 notch
- M (Muin): 1 diagonal stroke across the stem
- C (Coll): 4 strokes to the left
- H (Huath): 1 stroke to the left
- A (Ailm): 1 notch
- R (Ruis): 5 diagonal strokes across the stem
- A (Ailm): 1 notch
Every inscription is checked letter by letter against the traditional Ogham alphabet, so what hangs on your wall is correct.
A gift for your person
Anamchara makes a meaningful gift for a best friend, a partner, a sister or a lifelong companion. It suits weddings, anniversaries, and the friendships that have outlasted everything.
