"We heard of the horns in the hills ringing, the swords shining in the South-kingdom. Steeds went striding to the Stoningland as wind in the morning. War was kindled." ~Tolkien — Whatever battle you are going in to, do it in style. Let fly your banners, sound your trumpets and shout your battle cry for all to hear! Let your foe know who they face. — #literature #bookstagram #jrrtolkien #warrior #warhorn #warhorse #medievalfantasy #bladesmith #pelennorfields #whitehorse #eomer #theoden #eowyn #history #medievalhistory #vikinghair #rusviking #shieldwall #shieldmaiden (at Gondor, Middle Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKUlAFHHETS/?igshid=fj9hefokispz
🐣. Offer Xtras! Hand forged robe needle of the Rus Vikings - Medieval ring pin length approx 16 cm / 6.3 inches for €9.90 A forged iron robe needle for the Rus Viking. Such robe pins were often worn by not so well-off men in the Viking Age. This ring needle is rather what for coarser fabrics, because by its thickness it would damage finer and especially densely woven fabric. On my cloak, it is loosely woven, I was able to get the needle through quite well. On the ring you can still attach a ribbon and attach it to your chain, for example, if it should come loose from the fabric, you do not lose it so immediately. Dimensions: Needle length approx. 16 cm / 6.3 inches, ring diameter approx. 2.8 cm / 1.1 inches Tips for measuring and jewelry care can be found here: www.belanas-schatzkiste.info More brooches and brooches you can find here in the store: https://www.etsy.com/de/shop/BelanasSchatzkiste?section_id=19246855 For delivery to non-EU countries, customs and import taxes may apply in addition to the purchase price.

#inktober day 30: A Varangian Guard. 'Varangian' was the name used by the Greeks, Russians and others of the eastern Mediterranean and Middle East to describe the vikings who, in the 10th century, migrated east and south from Sweden and Finland to dominate areas such as modern day Belarus, the Ukraine and western Russia (collectively known then as Kievan Rus). They are best known for the Varangian Guard, mercenaries who were retained as the elite household bodyguard of the Byzantine Emperor, acting in the same capacity as Anglo-Saxon and Danish 'housecarls' in Western Europe. After The Battle of Hastings many exiled and dispossessed english warriors journeyed to the region in search of riches and new masters to serve, and many ended up in the Varangian Guard. Inks on A5 watercolour paper, no pencils.
