It can be used as a hair pin or a cloak or shawl pin.

No animals were injured. In November – December, the moose sheds its old horns. In April – May, the animals begin to grow new horns.
We find them in the forest, process and make unique things for you.

Size: is about 14.2 cm (5.6 inches).
width (at the widest part) is about 2 cm (0.8 inches).

This hairpin Raven is taken from a bird from the Vendel era, which was found as a pair on the Swedish island of Gotland and dates from the time around 600 AD. The Raven on the hairpin represents one of the ravens of the god Odin / Wotan, who always accompanied him.

Due to their strength and durability since ancient times, the horns/antlers of animals were used in the manufacture of weapons and jewelry.

Care: do not wet, and wear with pleasure.

I also want to draw your attention to the fact that some products in our store are painted. Therefore, over time, the paint may wear off.

Good shopping. Best regards Oksana.


Roman and Oksana live in Ukraine and love Viking culture and design! Roman carves amulets, knife handles and accessories from bone, antlers and horn, all shed naturally by the animals. Oksana takes care of the marketing and of running their shop on Etsy.

From Roman:

“My art is an integral part of my life. I do bone carving, mostly Viking style. In general, I can carve anything, but not all carving brings me pleasure and inspiration. The Viking history interests me and inspires me. I have been carving for more than 15 years and have sold my work to people in many different countries. I am very happy that I can share my art and my products far beyond my own country. Each new design in anything I make is a challenge. I love everything about my work. I never do anything I don’t like.”
