Viking Jewellery

In recent years "Aegishjalmr", the Helm of Awe, has become an iconic symbol tied into the magic of runes. However, the earliest depiction of this symbol was in the 17th Century Icelandic grimoire, Galdrabok.

The term "Aegishjalmr" is mentioned in the Volsung Saga, but with no description or explanation of what it is. Today it is believed to protect the wearer from harm.

This pendant is cast and hand finished by Asgard in Scotland. All our pewter is lead, nickel, and cadmium free. Supplied with a length of black, waxed cord so you can wear it straight away. Comes packaged on a pendant card, with a short description on the reverse.

This pretty pewter pendant symbolises a Viking period Key. It would have been worn by women 1000 years ago to show that they were in charge of the household and the land. It meant that they were in control of all locked items - like the house and the chests of jewellery and money. It was the women and not their husbands who were in control of such things.

This pendant is acceptable for use in a number of historical re-enactment groups. It is supplied on a jump ring and suspended from a length of black, waxed cord and ready to wear. It may be worn around the neck, or you could also remove the cord and affix to a string of beads between a pair of oval brooches.
