Just under” (0.96”) height plus the loop. Bronze, cast, and chased in minute detail as the double raised edge crescent moon with medial crescent and baluster tips representing Sol the sun and Mani the moon. Above, a nub nested in radial triangular clusters of nubs perhaps an anatomical reference. Undoubtedly of astrological significance, now lost. Viking worship involved the heavenly bodies on which they relied for guidance when sailing. Fine quality. Excellent condition contemporary wear. Jewelry gift boxed with a certificate of authenticity.
