Description
A full set of 24 Elder Futhark runes stamped on 3.5mm thick 25mm leather disks. These are optionally provided with a calfskin leather pouch handstitched with linen thread.
The meanings below are my interpretation of my reading of documents concerning the history of Old Norse and Proto-Germanic language. When used for divination purposes, consider the historical context of the meaning, for example fruit trees were used to make flutes and gaming pieces so the divinatory meaning of the rune perþ could be something along the lines of “entertainment” rather than the literal meaning of “fruit tree”.
