What is Godsnorth and what do you sell?

Godsnorth is a handmade wood carving workshop creating mythology-inspired wooden statues and sculptures. We specialize in Norse, Viking, Slavic, Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Aztec, and other ancient mythological figures designed for collectors, altar decor, and symbolic interior spaces.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. We offer worldwide shipping with tracking whenever available. For USA customers, we cover import duties and customs fees, so no additional charges are paid upon delivery.

What materials are your statues made from?

Our statues are carved from ash tree, a durable hardwood known for strength, stability, and excellent carving properties. In Norse tradition, ash wood is associated with Yggdrasil, the World Tree, symbolizing connection between worlds, resilience, and spiritual depth.

Are your statues handmade or mass-produced?

All pieces are individually handmade and hand-finished. We do not use mass production. Each sculpture is unique due to natural wood grain and traditional carving techniques.

What mythology and styles do you work with?

Our work is inspired by Norse mythology, Viking culture, Slavic pagan traditions, Egyptian gods, Mesopotamian deities, Aztec symbolism, and dark mythological archetypes. Each piece is an artistic interpretation and symbolic artwork, not a religious object.

Can I order a custom mythology statue?

Yes. We accept custom commissions for Norse gods, Slavic spirits, Egyptian deities, Aztec-inspired figures, and original mythology-based designs depending on complexity and feasibility.

Are these statues suitable for altars or spiritual spaces?

Yes. Many customers use our sculptures for pagan altars, meditation spaces, mythology-inspired decor, and symbolic home displays.

Do you have any statues in stock in the USA?

Yes! If a listing indicates "Ships from USA," that item is in stock in the USA for fast delivery to North American customers. All other items are handcrafted at our workshop in Ukraine and shipped directly to you. We package every piece with extreme care, regardless of where it is shipped from.

Highlights

Made by Godsnorth

Geri and Freki, the faithful frost wolves of Odin - the supreme Scandinavian god, handmade wooden viking shield carving from ecological material.
Material: ecological ash tree. Сoating: varnish. Height 11inch / 28cm. Width 12.2inch / 31cm. Depth 1.5inch / 4cm.
In Scandinavian mythology, Geri and Freki are two wolves who accompany the god Odin. In Old Icelandic, Geri means “greedy” and Freki means “voracious”.
They accompany Odin on his travels and protect him in battles. During wanderings, wolves move in front of the supreme god - scouting the path. And when Odin sits on his throne in Valhalla, the wolves meekly lie at his feet. While one of the wolves sleeps, the other does not sleep and keeps watching. That is why it is impossible to surprise their master and the most powerful of the gods.
Odin feeds exclusively on ale and wine, and he feeds all the rest of the food to his wolves. Therefore, the wolves get all the offerings for Odin.
In Scandinavian mythology, wolves were friends and enemies of the gods. As mentioned earlier, the two wolves were Odin's companions, but that doesn't mean they were friends of others in Asgard, the home of the gods.
Geri and Freki wandered around the great hall, walking among the souls of human warriors. Therefore, people in battle considered Geri and Freki to be signs of Odin's presence. Usually, the gray wolf seen on the battlefield was a positive sign for the warriors, because they believed that the animal would lead their spirit to Valhalla if they died in battle.
In Scandinavian mythology, Odin's wolves were not only his "pets", they were very brave and loyal and joined his divine master in battles.
Odin's wolves Geri and Freki are symbols of the loyalty of all Odin's servants to their god. A symbol of the superiority of its master over all others.
The ancient Scandinavians believed that wolves were creatures that helped the Valkyries transport fallen warriors to Valhalla and the hall of the afterlife of the slain.
