Vendel Period Warrior Pendant with Raven Helmet – Hand-Carved Horn or Bone
Early Scandinavian warrior amulet inspired by Vendel Period helmet imagery
$35.00
This pendant draws inspiration from the Vendel Period, an early Scandinavian era known for richly equipped warrior burials and distinctive helmet designs. The form reflects helmeted warrior figures connected with animal-style art and elite martial identity found in 6th–8th century Scandinavia.
The raven-style helmet design reflects ideas of awareness, presence, and battlefield observation. These themes appear in later Norse tradition, yet they were already part of earlier warrior symbolism during the Vendel Period.
Each piece is carved and finished by hand, keeping the natural surface and texture of the material intact. The pendant is available in horn or bone, allowing a choice between darker or lighter natural tones.
This amulet suits everyday wear, historical reenactment, or inclusion in collections focused on early Northern European cultures.
