Odin
3 1/4" art medal cast in bronze,
limited edition of 40.

Odin, the chief god of Norse mythology reigns in Valhalla inciting brutal Viking warriors to battle. As the god of wisdom and magic he sacrificed one of his own eyes into the well of Mimir in order to gain immense wisdom. Two ravens, Huginn and Muginn fly out into the nine worlds to gather news and return to whisper into his ears all that goes on. At his feet sit two wolves, Geri and Freki, omens of good luck and on his finger a magic ring. My ancient ancestors passed down to their children this legend, this character of dichotomy, both wickedly brutal but lover of knowledge, physically barbaric but refined of mind, good and evil.
