Odin Godmask | Enamel Pin

  • £10.00
Design

Odin, All Father, the masked one… The father of the gods is known by many names!

The Badger King chose to design a godmask for Odin, which seemed fitting given that one of his many names is Grímnir or the masked one. The artwork on this enamel pin is very loosely based on the Aarhus runsetone (also known as the mask stone).

As we all know, the father of the gods, Odin, sacrificed one of his eyes in exchange for wisdom. This glorious enamel pin created by Badger King commemorates this loss with an area cut out of the metal where Odin’s eye used to be.

   

Material & Make

Our pins are crafted in solid metal with enamel detailing and a sturdy pin for security of closure and longevity.

His creations and knowledge also manifest in a project known as Badger Horns, where he shares stories and mythology related to Celtic folklore.
