Nordic Axe Head pendant in Sterling Silver or Antique Bronze

This is a handmade viking axe head pendant I made based one I found in pewter. This is available in either .925 sterling silver or antique bronze.  One side features a raven, the animal associated with Odin, the primary god of wisdom, with the rune Algiz, the rune of protection. The other side features a howling wolf, the animal associated with Forseti, a god of justice and law, and the rune Othala, the rune of home.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the Nordic Axe Head Pendant carries profound symbolism. The axe, a tool and weapon in one, symbolizes strength, courage, and the spirit of Viking warriors. Wearing this axe pendant becomes a tangible connection to the valour and skill of those who once roamed the northern lands.

Algiz is a rune of great restraint power, defence and protection. It is used in charms and talismans to protect of the person as well as their property.

Othala represents a wealth that cannot be sold. This is wealth like family, friendships or our culture and heritage that is passed down to us. It represents an enclosure and maintains the existing state of things as they presently are.
