Description
2" height plus the suspension loop. In three pieces with a conical body perhaps a reference to the Viking shield as well as the Rota Fortuna (Wheel of Fortune) which carried on from the Roman/Byzantine culture. duel meanings were common in Viking art and pagan religion. The bottom is suspended with two well-delineated duck feet on circular suspensions. A burial at Viden, Denmark contained the body of a woman of wealth and status buried with henbane seeds, which have hallucinogenic properties, and a wand as well as other objects. From these, archeologists concluded that she was a seeress or sorceress. The grave contained a necklace hung with three duck feet pendants very similar to this. Professionally refurbished with the silver surface restored, on a Sterling silver neck chain for modern wear. Gift boxed with certificate of authenticity.
