Spirit Board Necklace
The spirit board, more commonly known as the ouija board, emerged from America’s fascination with spiritualism during the 19th century. At a time when the average lifespan was under 50, communicating with the dead offered comfort to those grieving lost loved ones, and contact with the afterlife was widely accepted rather than feared. As “talking boards” grew in popularity, they became a cultural phenomenon used for everything from party entertainment to creative inspiration. Writers claimed to channel ideas through the movement of the planchette, amateur detectives consulted boards for clues in famous murder cases, and even Norman Rockwell featured one on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post.
