A good example of a particularly intricate form. Low relief with a centered naturalistic heart with scalloped edges echoing the foliate border which joins at the top to form the cusp. A heart within a heart! Just under 3/4" height, made by the open face mold technique. The iconic form in elaborate presentation and intricate detail. For Vikings, the heart stood for bravery, fortitude, loyalty, integrity, all attributes of the warrior. It is said that Hrungnir, with whom Thor dueled (assisted by a sorceress), had a heart of stone. A little wear from its period of use 1000 years ago! Professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold surface restored, on a gold gilt neck chain for modern wear. Gift boxed with a certificate of authenticity.
