Angeby Runic Cross

Deanne Mckeown-Sedona, AZ

Sterling silver  1 3/4”x3/4”

Sweden 1000 AD

A great holiday gift idea from Isadora. The foremost carver of ancient runes on stone was Asmund, who worked in Viking Sweden between 1025 and 1050 AD. His intricate carving on the Angeby stone reads:”" Ragnfrid had this stone erected in Memory of Bjorn, God and God’s Mother rest his soul. He fell in Estland(England)” This runic stone is found in the Uppland region of central Sweden.   This cross comes with a historical information card. A collection of crosses created by Byron and Deanne McKeown, created from their historical research on crosses and rosaries worldwide. Cast in sterling silver, gold, vermeil, semi-precious and precious stones, these designs are exclusive to the McKeown Galleries.
