Amulets and pendants based on finds from antiquity

Magical companions: the fascinum in everyday Roman life

Life in the Roman Empire was often marked by uncertainty, and so people sought help from symbols that were believed to have protective powers. The fascinum, an amulet often shaped like a phallus, was particularly widespread. Archaeological finds prove that these pieces were popular not only with soldiers, but also with women and children as protection against the ‘evil eye’. When you hold a detailed replica of such an amulet in your hands today, you can feel the worries and hopes of the people of that time. Our authentic replicas bring this ancient tradition of Roman protective magic back to life.

Pelta pendants: the elegance of Roman military art

When we think of Roman equipment, heavy armour often comes to mind. But Roman craftsmanship also offered astonishing elegance, as the pelta pendants show. The crescent shape, reminiscent of the shields of legendary Amazons, was a popular motif for military fittings. The filigree Roman openwork technique – known as Opus Interrasile – also testifies to the high level of craftsmanship of that era, which we have captured for you in detailed replicas. These Roman jewellery pieces were not only decorative, but also showed pride and belonging. These pieces are an authentic addition to your Roman re-enactment, bringing history to life and also looking great as everyday necklaces.

Powerful symbols with ancient roots

The Roman cavalry was the heart of many provinces, such as Pannonia. The connection to horses is impressively demonstrated in pendants depicting horse heads or geometric shapes such as the tetraskelion. These symbols represent dynamism, protection and a preference for clear, harmonious structures. Our replicas of these amulets bring this aesthetic directly into your everyday life or your collection. They are proof of how much the ancients valued detail and symbolic depth.

Germanic splendour: the fine art of pendants

While the Roman Empire was expanding, the Germanic tribes in the north developed their own impressive design language. The so-called pendants are the best example of this. These acorn- or pear-shaped pendants captivate with their elaborate granulation technique. Tiny metal beads were soldered onto the surface to achieve a fascinating texture. These pieces of jewellery were true status symbols. An authentic replica of such a Berlocke is not just a piece of jewellery, but a window into a world where craftsmanship and social status were closely linked.

Runes and myths: The spearhead of Kowel

In the Germanic world, weapons were also symbols of strength and power. Our pendant, modelled on the Germanic spearhead of Kowel with its legendary runic inscription, is a historical artefact that authentically documents the connection between weapons and magic. We have translated this archaic statement into our detailed pendant replicas. For anyone who loves the mystical side of history, such an amulet is an indispensable companion that brings the legends of Wotan and the rune masters into the present.

Guldgubben: Little messengers from a distant time

Sometimes it is the smallest finds that fascinate us the most. The Germanic Guldgubben, tiny gold foil figures, are both a mystery and a treasure. They often depict couples dancing ritually or embracing. We reconstruct these tiny works of art from the North as detailed amulets so that you can experience the spiritual world of the late Iron Age for yourself. It is a fascinating way to carry history with you – unobtrusive, but deeply rooted in the past.
