    • Description

      This is my own recreation of the mask of Odin, modelling it closely on the various finds, staying true to the original motifs. I have inscribed runes on the back in Old Norse: Othin vigi - Odin protect.  The mask of Odin, chief of the Viking gods, has crossed the gulf of time, surviving in rediscovered carvings, metalwork and pendants. Time and again the face of the Odin peers out at us from the distant past. He is often shown - as here - as a mask, crowned with horns ending in raven heads, or as a figure bearing weapons. We see his one eye, the other sacrificed in exchange for wisdom. We see the ravens Hugin and Munin, who brought him news from across the nine worlds. We see the horns, bearing witness to his connection to the horned god of older traditions, and to the Wild Hunt.

       Height 35mm

      Weight of Sterling Silver 12.2g (Weight may vary from piece to piece)

      Exactly what I was hoping for

      The pendant is well made, nice weight to it, and exactly as pictured. Not a large ostentatious pendant, just the right size to be noticeable and fashionable, and the runes on the back have a nice knife carved look to them. 10/10 would buy for a friend after seeing mine.

      High quality jewellery and fantastic service.

      I love Nordic Viking Silver’s creations. I’ve got real Viking ancestry and there’s a lot of silver ‘Viking’ jewellery out there but when it came to buying myself something really Viking, I wanted Albin’s Mask of Odin (well, actually my mum bought it for me for my special 50th birthday). to go with my Strength runes ring. The craftsmanship is extremely high quality. The communication is really good and my item was dispatched quickly and arrived in a lovely box with an Odin postcard. It’s also all very affordable given the weight and quality of the pieces. Thank you Nordic Viking Silver for making my big five-o a very happy birthday.

      Happy birthday Clare and thank you for the review. Cheers Rachel and Alban

      Odin would be impressed

      This pendant is solid and well made. It has a nice weight to it. The thickness off this piece is lovelly. The idea that it is made to resemble a archeological find, like all of the items on this site, made me want it even more then the fact that its very nice looking in the first place.
      Eitri has found a rival in this man.

      Thank you so much Andre!

      A work of art!

      Such an amazing piece, the mask is a work of art, it's as if the sons of Ivaldi had made it! The work is clean and crisp with no deformities in either the silver or the polishing. Rachel and Alban are simply the most helpful and skilled at providing great pieces of art and fantastic customer service, my mask was adapted to take the 2.4mm snake chain and its amazing to have both pieces together. The pendant has an otherworldy heft to it, very comfortable and will never to taken off! Truly fantastic people and an amazing business. Thankyou :)

      Thanks Mike!
