Slightly under 3/4” width (0.74”). Particularly well modeled with radial hatching to both arms. As expert navigators, the constellations signified mystery and power to Vikings. The Moon was personified as Mani, brother to Sol the Sun, and is abundantly represented in Norse literature. Lunar pendants were worn as pectorals as well as suspended from belts, other clothing, and horse harnesses. This example is professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold overlay restored, on a modern gilt Sterling silver 18” chain and jewelry gift boxed with a certificate of authenticity.
