Bearded axe pendant modelled on the Viking Age.
The striking axe pendant is modelled on a so-called bearded axe, which was very common in the Viking Age both as a weapon in battle and as a tool in everyday life.
The bearded axe was called skeggox in Scandinavia during the Viking Age. The name is composed of the Old Norse words "skegg" for beard and "ox" for axe and thus means bearded axe.
The bearded axe was widespread in Scandinavia from the 6th century until the end of the Viking Age because it guarantees a perfect ratio of blade width to weight and amount of material used.
Axe amulets are known from the Viking period from several sites. They were especially popular with the eastern Vikings, but and also common in the Baltic and Sweden.
The bearded axe pendant measures 4 x 3 cm.
You can buy this Viking pendant in high-quality bronze or real silver-plated.
Alternatively, also available in 925 sterling silver (Please note the delivery time). Alloy...
A black leather strap in 1 m length for the bearded axe amulet is included.
The axe was widely used and immensely popular among the Vikings as a tool and weapon, as it was quite easy to make and required little forging skill. In the Viking Age, the axe was considered the most important weapon of the common man, next to the spear, as only very few could afford a sword at that time.
