This pendant is based on a Viking age lead alloy find from York. It is very similar to a number of gold pendants probably manufactured in Denmark and found in Hiddensee, Germany, which gives it’s name to this type.
The York pendant is missing a lot of fine detail and so we used a find from Tolstrup, Denmark for reference.
The pendant weighs 30g and is cast in pewter in Scotland. Supplied with a length of black waxed cord.
Dimensions: 41 mm x 47 mm
Here at Asgard we have one passion: Vikings!
We've spent thousands of hours over the last twenty years studying Viking period artefacts. We've honed our experimental archaeology skills to work out how things were made 1000 years ago, and applied that to the replica Viking items we hand make in Scotland.
