Epoca vichinga Bronzo Amuleto con due piedi di papera - 49 mm (Senza prezzo di riserva)
Material: Bronze / copper alloy
Dimensions: 49 x 22 mm
Date: 10th – 11th century AD
Condition: Complete and intact with suspension mount, chains, and both feet preserved. Corrosion and patina consistent with age.
A cast bronze amulet consisting of a ribbed suspension mount from which two articulated elements hang, each terminating in a flat triangular pendant in the form of stylised duck’s feet.
Duck’s foot amulets are a characteristic type of personal ornament of the Viking Age. Their precise meaning is still debated, but they are thought to have served as protective talismans, connected with fertility, seafaring luck, and the apotropaic power of birds. The dynamic movement of the pendants when worn enhanced their symbolic and magical function.
