Vikingetiden Bronze Vedhæng – solsymbol, vikingetiden, 9.-11. århundrede. (Ingen mindstepris)

This bronze pendant dates to the Viking Era (circa 9th–11th centuries) and features a compact solar-symbol form, a motif deeply rooted in Norse cosmology. The sun held a central place in Viking belief systems, symbolizing life, cyclical renewal, protection, and cosmic order. The pendant displays a faceted, almost pyramidal lower body, with engraved linear segments radiating downward, evoking solar rays or abstracted cosmological divisions. The upper section forms a solid suspension loop, suggesting it was designed for daily wear as a personal amulet rather than purely decorative use. Crafted from cast bronze, the surface shows a stable and attractive dark brown to green patina, consistent with long-term age and burial conditions. The form is robust yet minimalist, characteristic of utilitarian Viking jewelry imbued with symbolic meaning. Dimensions: Height: 23 mm Width: 13 mm Such pendants are generally interpreted as protective or apotropaic objects, worn to invoke strength, balance, and the favor of cosmic forces. This example is well-preserved and represents a fine illustration of Viking Age symbolic metalwork.
