RARE VIKING WOMAN WARRIOR'S BRACELET PENDANT NECKLACE

Item Details

Description

10th-11th century AD. Vikings were highly skilled metallurgists, and as a result, breaking metal had supernatural significance for them. Breaking ringjarn (iron rings) as shown on the Larbro Stone, was thought to destroy the spirits of enemies. Similarly, Viking weapons and accouterments were broken for burial with their owners. This is the broken end of a fine Viking woman warrior's bronze bracelet. It is about 1/2” x 5/8”, tapered. It has raised double line edges flanking addorsed panels of curvilinear motifs. It is a woman's bracelet, broken in the warrior’s funerary process and the end curled after breaking. It is well documented that women fought alongside men and women's burials containing swords, other weapons and armor are documented. The surface is worn form use and textured from burial. It was handcrafted by a Viking artisan 1000 years ago, worn by a Viking woman warrior and broken as part of her funerary ritual! It has been professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold surface restored and mounted to an 18” gilt Sterling silver neck chain for modern wear. It comes with certification of authenticity, and jewelry gift box. Purchases of one or more ancient jewelry lots (that have $13 flat shipping prices) will only cost $13 in total combined shipping. •Celtic Roman Viking Medieval Norse Scandinavian ancient ring bracelet necklace
