QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Did Viking ships really carry shields on the side?
The Gokstad ship burial was found with a row of shields fixed along each gunwale. Most researchers read that as display for the burial or for harbour, not a battle arrangement, since shields there would foul the oars.
Is this a flat pendant?
No. It is a miniature ship modelled in the round, with the hull, shields and sail all cut separately.
How heavy is it?
8 g in 925 sterling silver.
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.
