UK Handmade Pewter Helm of Awe Raven Skull Pendant

The Helm of Awe is a powerful protective symbol used by the Vikings for the purpose of protection from illness, and disease. In Norse mythology it is said that it is a symbol that was worn between the eyes that induces fear in your enemies, and to protect against the abuse of power.

The raven is a common iconic figure in Norse mythology. The highest god Odin had two ravens named Huginn and Muninn ("thought" and "memory" respectively) who flew around the world bringing back tidings to their master. Therefore, one of Odin's many names was the "ravengod" (Hrafnaguð).

This heavy pendant is hand made in fine English Pewter in the UK with great attention to detail, the pendant itself being near life-size of a raven's skull with fine detailing hanging on a real leather cord which can be shortened if you'd like to change the length of the cord. Pendant is fastened with an adjustable pewter T-bar fastener. Designed and hand made in England in fine English pewter the cord length is adjustable. (Lead, cadmium & nickel compliant)
