Description of the Product

This is a replica of a bracteate found from Vadstena, Sweden. Bracteates are flat, thin, single-sided gold, silver or bronze medals similar to coins that were worn as jewelry during the migration period. In some places, like in Finland, bracteates were used also during the Viking Era approx. 800-1000 CE. Medieval coins that are minted with a picture only from the other side are also called bracteates.

The original Vadstena Bracteate is believed to have been made about 500 AD and it was found in 1774. The bracteate was stolen in 1938 from the Swedish Museum of National Antiquities and has not yet been found.

In the middle of the bracteate is a four-legged animal with a man's head above it. In front of them is a bird separated from the other images by a line. The image symbols are commonly associated with the Norse god Odin. The pendant also contains a full listing of the Elder Futhark runic alphabet.

The Vadstena Bracteate is made of zamak in silver color. It can be worn as a perfect accessory for historical reenactment of the Iron- and Viking Ages, LARP costumes or as everyday jewelry.

Bought the metal Rotella shield here. It shipped to Italy in just a couple days perfectly packaged and without a single bump (impressive since it's a sheet metal item).

Tilasin keskiaikaisen hupun. 100% puuvillaa, joten voi käsitellä kosteussuoja-aineella. Vaivatonta kaupankäyntiä.

Sain kaksi muistikirjaa ja kalligrafiasetin setin 25-vuotis lahjaksi rakkaaltani. Ne ovat upeita! Olen saanut valtavasti kyselyitä muistikirjan alkuperästä ja kehunut Rautaporttia laadukkaasta käsityöstä. Tuotteista huokuu estetiikka, laatu ja taianomaisuus. Täydellinen lahja historia-/fantasianörtille!

I'm very happy to shop and cooperate with this company. The customer service is perfect, fast and friendly. The products have good quality, good prices and are exactly what you see at the pictures, no fake photos. I'm just received a package 📦 today, and it takes 7 days from Finland 🇫🇮 to come to Greece 🇬🇷. Very fast and easy!!

Siis aivan huikea!! Tilasin pari tuotetta aamupäivällä, ja 24h myöhemmin ne olivat jo noudettavissa postin automaatista! Kaikki sujui kuin rasvattu, ei ole mitään moitittavaa. Vaatteet olivat juuri sitä mitä tilasin, ja koot pitävät kyllä todella hyvin paikkansa! 😍 Aion ehdottomasti tilata vielä uudestaan, ja ehdottomasti suosittelen kaikille!
