The object in detail.
Viking period stunning white bronze decorated pendant with Triskelion, dating 9th century AD.
Such amulets decorated the outfit, as well as were talismans from evil spirits. It has a beautiful geometrical decoration with a triskelion.
At the bottom, there is a ring for attaching the pendant. These were set at the end of the protective amulet when the person was walking, the noisy suspension ringing and scaring with the noise of evil spirits. Very beautiful suspension, in a beautifully preserved form.
Size: 30×21 mm
