Odin in Ritual Helmet Pendant with Dragons – Viking Age Amulet in Bone

This pendant depicts Odin as the Allfather wearing a ritual helmet, framed by stylised dragon forms. The design draws inspiration from Vendel Period and early Viking Age imagery, where dragons and serpentine creatures were closely associated with power, guardianship, and the unseen forces surrounding elite warriors and gods.

In early Scandinavian art, dragons often appear as protective beings and threshold figures, marking the boundary between the human and the divine. Their presence in ritual and warrior imagery reflects strength, vigilance, and continuity rather than a specific mythological scene.

Each pendant is carved by hand from natural bone or horn. The carving preserves the sharp geometry and mask-like expression typical of early Scandinavian ritual forms. Natural variation in tone and surface confirms the handmade character of every piece.

This amulet suits collectors of Norse history, reenactors, and those drawn to historically grounded symbolism rooted in early Northern European art.
