全部拍賣 / Ancient Art / Viking Era Bronze dragon foot amulet - 48 mm (No reserve price)


Material: White bronze Dimensions: 48 mm (height), 26 mm (width). Origin: Europe Condition: Very good condition for age; suspension hole intact; minor surface wear consistent with age. A cast bronze pendant of triangular form with pierced openwork and decorative ribbing, known as a dragon’s foot pendant. The piece is defined by its three projecting “toes” at the base, representing the stylised claw or foot of a mythical beast. The pendant shows surface decoration, adding texture and emphasizing the claw-like form. In Norse mythology, Fáfnir (Old Norse and Icelandic) or Frænir is a son of the dwarf king Hreidmar and brother of Regin , Ótr, Lyngheiðr and Lofnheiðr. After being affected by the curse of Andvaris ring and gold, Fafnir became a dragon and was slain by the brave hero Sigurd. The wearable reminder of this myth would have inspired bravery in Viking warriors.
