Tiw Anglo Saxon God Of War

[OdinUK]

Hi,

the Sutton Hoo Purse, very well known. BUT this must not be Tiw, it also can be Daniel in the Lion´s Pit. Archeologists are not shure what this Picture does mean. Here in Germany it is also a well known motive, so on Purses, Belt buckles and Coins.

The Sutton Hoo burial was a King´s grave in the time of synkretism, so old norse and christianity are often both in this context.

The Leatherwork you´ve done is great! I like it!

Thanks for the info. All the references I find on the internet suggests that its Tiw, but I cant say for sure. Thanks for your comments:)

Nice job! Your tooling is so smooth and even it looks like a machine stamped it! Good job! Cant go wrong with black and red, strong color combo. Thanks for sharing!

@Andy, Thanks for the nice comments! Even though it began as a practice piece, I always try to improve from the last project.

Thanks for the tip, I'll look it up. Is it a permanent coating or does it need to be re-applied?

No Problem! I´ve doing early medieval Reenactment since 15 years. If you have any questions, just ask me.

Fantastic work. You did a great job separating the red parts from the black.
