More Bling
The Hammer of Thor is showing the moment, when Thor is going fishing with the giant Hymir and it is all about catching the biggest fish, off course.
So Thor decapitates the finest bull in Hymirs posession and uses the head as a bait.
They row far out and Thor is not impressed about the two whales, Hymir pulls up.
Further out, Thor pulls up the Midgardserpent itself, a giant snake, that surrounds the world.
He wants to kill it with his hammer, but Hymir is so scared, that he cuts the line and the serpent sinks back.
So in the weaving of the hammer you can see the Midgardserpent swallowing the bait.
That saga was depicted very often by the norsemen on runestones, etc.
The heads on the necklace are replicas from Kungsgården, Gamla Uppsala (SE) from around 1000- 1100.
Finest quality work, availiable in 925 Sterling silver and bronze.

Freija
Freija, the norse goddess of love and off course Odhinn´s wife :) She wears the most beautiful jewelry ever made, the Brisingamen, there are rumours, that she had to do some favours for a couple of nasty dwarfes, who created the piece...
Dwarfes need love, too ;)
There´s an ongoing discussion among the pagan clerics if Odhinn´s wife and the sister of Frey (the god of fertility) is the same person...

Power of the dance
Aaaaarrrgghhhhh!!!! |
Some ICONS Christina shot here! h2fotografie.blogspot.com S. was so full of energy at the shot, it was really difficult to choose the pictures, because each and everyone radiates the power, that was unleashed.
The facepaint is not like it seems, inspired by our favourite norvegian music (black metal rules anyway), but by peaceful danish pottery painting, you´ll find on grandma´s finest dish :)
Merchandise and Bling 1
The shirt: For boys and girls in all sizes availiable.
My jewelry designs: The necklace is a combination, it contains
The norvegian hammer, the top is taken from the oseberg sledge (8th century, eastern norway), the beast in the hammerhead is a design from the inside of the Urnes stavchurch (1130, western norway)
The snakeheads are inspired by a finnish finding.
The sunwheel brooch: The design is inspired by many pre-christian sunwheel broches, from early Roman up to Vendel age and Viking pieces.
More to come...

Stäbe und Sterne
A rune star, inspired by Vegvisir and others. The tattoo has a magical background and the bearer wishes to be influenced by the power of the carefully chosen runes, matching her personality and development.
An icelandic classic: The Vegvisir can be found in the galdrabok from the 17th century and in older manuscripts, there it is decribed as a magical symbol amongst 143 others.
The book contains complex runewritings and symbols.
Ægishjálmur, can be found in the same book, both designs are also deeply rooted in icelandic and scandinavian culture.
I personally think, runic inscriptions should be kept simple and bold, gives them a nice, very classic appearance :)
Sometimes it is, what it looks like...a snowflake ;)
