Regular price $190.00 Sale

Over 1 1/8” height, made by the open face mold technique. Silvered bronze of elongated form with deeply cusped top and nubs at the quarter points. The edge is defined with an incised line. Plain flat field suggesting provincial or colonial manufacture, perhaps Iceland. For Vikings, the heart stood for bravery, fortitude, loyalty, integrity, and attributes of the warrior. It is abundantly referenced in Viking literature. Professionally refurbished with the pure silver surface restored on a Sterling silver 18neck chain for contemporary wear. Jewelry gift boxed with certification of authenticity.
