QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
What is a Perun's axe?
Perun is the Slavic thunder god, and the small axe amulets named after him are a real archaeological type: bronze axe pendants turn up across Kievan Rus and the Baltic from about the 11th to the 13th centuries. They are Slavic, not Norse, although the two worlds traded and fought along the same rivers.
Is this Norse or Slavic?
Slavic. Perun is the Slavic thunder god, not a Norse one. Small axe amulets like this are a Slavic type, and we sell it as one.
Bronze or silver?
Both. Pick the metal at checkout. The casting is the same in either case; the weight given, 12 g, is the maker's figure.
Does it come with a chain?
This listing is for the pendant on its own. You can pair it with any of our Viking chains and necklaces.
