Dragonhead (VP11) Pendant Charm Necklace

For Safety on Journeys

The longboat figurehead was an important magical charm believed to frighten off supernatural predators just as defensive shields would protect them from human foes. Voyages could be dangerous and the Vikings sought the guardianship of the dragon symbol for protection and good fortune when away from the home harbour.

Designed by our Eastgate artist, each piece comes individually packed with its own chain and gift pouch.
