Hanwei Viking Short Blade Spear

The decorated spearheads demonstrate the Viking’s creative use of intricate patterns, created using the “Niello” process. This involved using an alloy of several metals (notably silver) mixed with sulfur which was rubbed into an incised pattern and then fired. Where the alloy is rubbed into the engraving, it remains black while the rest of the surface is polished to a bright finish. Hanwei’s decorating process provides a lustrous, permanent Niello-like effect. Although these spear head can be displayed beautifully solo, fitting this head with an ash pole makes for even more finished authenticity and impressive look within your Viking decor. Each spearhead has a shaft diameter of 1”. Spearheads only are supplied.
