初期中世またはヴァイキング時代 「戦士の聖なる矢」アロー・アミュレット、勇気・正確さ・勝利の象徴 (No reserve price)

A striking bronze arrowhead attributed to the Medieval / Viking tradition, preserved in an elegant elongated leaf-shaped form and now presented as a wearable historical amulet. The arrowhead features a pronounced central rib running along its length, giving the piece both structural strength and a powerful symmetrical appearance. Its slender pointed profile reflects the practical weapon forms associated with archery and hunting in the medieval northern European world. For the Vikings and other early medieval warrior societies, the arrow was closely connected with hunting, warfare, skill and survival. As a modern wearable amulet, the arrowhead can symbolically represent strength, protection, courage, purpose and the ability to follow one's chosen path. The surface retains a deep, naturally aged appearance with dark brown and earthy bronze tones, highlighting the central ridge and contours of the piece. Irregularities, wear and surface deposits contribute to its historic character. A modern suspension ring and chain have been added, transforming the object into a distinctive piece of wearable history while keeping the arrowhead itself visually dominant. Object: Bronze arrowhead / wearable amulet Attribution: Medieval / Viking tradition Material: Bronze Form: Elongated leaf-shaped arrowhead with central rib Symbolism: Warrior spirit – Protection – Courage – Direction – Strength Condition: Age-related surface wear and patination; see photographs Mounting: Modern suspension ring and chain
