A beautiful bronze dragon foot amulet comprised an openwork design with an integrated suspension loop and three vertical bars joined with angled horizontal bars to form a stylized foot.

In Norse mythology, Fáfnir (Old Norse and Icelandic) or Frænir is a son of the dwarf king Hreidmar and brother of Regin , Ótr, Lyngheiðr and Lofnheiðr. After being affected by the curse of Andvaris ring and gold, Fafnir became a dragon and was slain by the brave hero Sigurd. The wearable reminder of this myth would have inspired bravery in Viking warriors.
