Tree Decoration, 2-pack, Ullr, 14 cm

2-pack with Ullr that can be hung in a tree or placed on a flat surface. His name is stitched into his tunic with the Younger Futhark runes. Ullr was a god known for being the best ski-runner, unrivaled by all. This earned him the name "ski-god".

Midwinter celebrations in Viking Age Scandinavia were (and still are) known as Jul. A common practice, already appearing in Hrafnsmál in the year 900, is "drinking Jul". That points at the importance of gathering around the ceremonial toasts during the festivities. Odin, also known as Jölföðr (Yule Father) was an important figure during this period. Midwinter is often connected to Odin and his wild hunt across the sky.
