MEDIEVAL VIKING AGE IRON BEARDED BATTLE AXE HEAD

Item Details

Description

Ca. 900â€“1100 AD. Viking Age. An iron bearded axe head with a curved blade, a reinforced square poll and a long cheek decorated with geometric incisions â€“ a vertical row of dots and two triangular incisions. Good condition; mounted on a custom-made stand. Bearded axes were common from the 6th century AD onwards in Scandinavia but made especially famous by the Vikings. In bearded axes, the main part of the blade extends below the butt of the axe creating a large cutting blade that allows fighters to hook onto the shields or weapons of their opponents. For more information on Viking axes, see Hubbard, B. (2016) The Viking Warrior. London: Amber Books Ltd, 139â€“141. Provenance: Private UK collection; Formerly acquired on the European art market from pre-2000 collections. Size: L:220mm / W:94mm ; 1.25kg
