Product description
This bronze Valkyrie pendant is a replica from the Viking era and depicts a small female figure, elegantly dressed and with tied hair, holding a drinking horn. The original Valkyrie pendant was made of silver and was found in Klinta on the Swedish island of Öland. The Viking amulet is interpreted as a Valkyrie offering a fallen warrior a horn of mead to welcome him to Valhalla. Depictions of women are more common than pendants in Viking Age finds. They were likely worn as a protective amulet during that period, as in Norse mythology Valkyrie women were considered those who, after battle, chose the souls of fallen warriors (Einherijr) to guide them to the halls of Valhalla.
