维京时代 黄铜色 稀有的十字吊坠，装有狼头端饰——避邪护符，公元9世纪至11世纪 (没有保留价)

一件来自过去、为佩戴而制的饰物

Rare Viking Era Bronze Cross Pendant with Wolf Head Terminals – Apotropaic Amulet, 9th–11th Century AD

这枚吊坠以强烈的中央十字和以狼头型式结尾的装饰形态为特征，直接契合维京时代的动物形象金工传统。9世纪至11世纪的十字形饰端有扩展形状或动物头部端饰的实例，收录于英国博物馆和丹麦国家博物馆的藏品中，显示出明确的 typological parallels（分模对比）。在北欧神话中，狼象征力量、命运与保护力；在此框架下，此件作品成为一种明显的避邪护符，将基督教十字符号与持久的维京动物风格传统相融合。

Information
The offered object was acquired in 2026 through an auction associated with N.K.I. Auction House in Germany and was transferred to us in 2026 by its previous owner, N.A., based in the Netherlands

The object has been documented using high-resolution equipment; no intervention has been made to its form or structural integrity, and only limited color-balance adjustment has been applied.

Upon request, museum-standard technical photographs may be provided during the auction; if requested prior to shipment, an expert report and a signed ownership document issued in the buyer’s name can be supplied in PDF format within 3–5 business days

Statements regarding dating, function, symbolic interpretation, and material identification represent high-probability academic assessments based on typological comparisons, parallels in museum collections, and expert opinion; definitive conclusions require advanced laboratory analysis and fall outside the scope of the platform’s sales process.

Prospective buyers are advised to evaluate the images in conjunction with the stated measurements, as high-resolution photography may influence perceived scale. Throughout the presentation and sales process, principles of scholarly consistency, transparency, and good faith are observed, and no object is knowingly offered as a copy or imitation.
