Zoomorphic Borre Style Amulet recreated in moose antlers, inspired by original Viking pieces dated 9-10 Century AD.

The moose, deer antlers and wood were the most affordable raw materials used to carve and design ornate pieces. A common feature among Viking jewelry were animal designs taken from nature and Norse mythology. Bone jewellery was common among Viking men and women.

Size: 6.2x5.2 cm / 2.4x2.0 inches

Materials*: moose antlers. No animal has been injured, as moose drop their antlers from late March to mid-April. Due to their strength and durability since ancient times, the moose antlers were used in the manufacture of weapons and jewelry.
