Looking for a Norwegian pendant
Hi all!
A friend of mine has this pendant: http://photo.meulie.net/v/various/pe...ndant.jpg.html She bought it many years ago somewhere in a Norwegian tourist shop. Now she would very much like to have more of these pendants. Who knows any online store that sells this precise pendant? The pendant is made of pewter, and is made up of a square cross with 2 single-bladed Viking axes. Any help will be greatly appreciated! :-) Greetings, Evert |

The pendant is made of pewter, and is made up of a square cross with 2 single-bladed Viking axes. This is from the coat-of-arms of the Church of Norway, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_Norway The axes is in memory of St. Olav, who were killed with an axe in the battle of Stiklestad, 1030. You may try at the Nidaros Cathedral http://www.nidarosdomen.no/english/ The restoration works (NDR) runs a shop that sells souvenirs etc. e-mail: http://www.nidarosdomen.no/psmaler/g...isId=970410264 |

Thank you again, also on behalf of my friend. Evert |
