THE VALKNUT WALLET

$95.00

This leather wallet has been embossed with our Valknut design which is derived from an ancient arcane symbol depicting three interlocking triangles. Referencing the Borromean Ring variant of the Valknut design, we drew inspiration for our Valknut leather wallet from the Viking Age Sora Hammars stones in Gotland, Sweden. Included in a striking image of sacrifice over an altar, this depiction of the Valknut seems to best capture its importance to Viking culture.

The color of the wallet may vary slightly due to the nature of the hand-rubbed stain.

Description

About the Valknut:
The ancient arcane symbol comprised of a triad of interlocking triangles has no firm historical context, though some scholars point to the 9th century Snoldelev Stone as a likely source for the design. On this stone, a conjoined trio of Viking-era drinking horns is featured, along with runes composed in the Younger Futhark alphabet. Other researchers consider it to be a variant of the Triskelion, while still others relate it to Odin. As a symbol of Odin’s power on earth, the Valknut may represent a binding rune or ritual used shortly before or after death in battle.
