Keepsake Chest: "Ravens of the Allfather"; Laser-Engraved Box, Nordic-themed Artwork, Handcrafted Chest w/ magnetic lid & velvet interior

$180.00

Huginn and Muninn ("Thought" and "Memory", respectively, in the Old Norse language) are a pair of ravens that fly all over the world of Midgard, the realm of man, returning daily to Asgard, the realm of the gods, bringing information concerning the world and its denizens to Odin Allfather. This Nordic-themed chest is decorated with historically styled artwork and symbols representing the ravens as well as the watchful protection of the Allfather.

From the poem Grímnismál:
"O'er Midgard Huginn and Muninn both
Each day set forth to fly;
For Huginn I fear lest he come not home,
But for Muninn my care is more."

This chest-style box with Nordic design elements representing Odin's ravens is perfect as a keepsake box, gaming component case, or any other function a small treasure chest could fulfill. Created from 1/8-inch birch plywood, with high resolution laser engraved artwork and a dual staining process for an extra level of detail. Due to the manner of its construction, this chest is very resilient and durable, with double layers at important structural points and bracing that also lends greatly to its appearance. The chest also features a velvet-lined interior and magnets which keep the lid securely closed. This chest is constructed to last many generations and hold many valuables, whether literal or sentimental, over the years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wholesale availability

Due to the nature of the majority of my work, and the typical amount of business that comes through my shop, wholesale items are not available.

Custom and personalized orders

Please contact me before placing an order should you desire customizations not outlined or offered in any particular listing.

Holiday ordering

During the Christmas holiday season, I can quickly become VERY busy; typically putting in 12 hour days in order to make holiday shipping deadlines.
Please plan ahead - I begin taking Christmas orders in late August, but due to workload, I will close the shop to further made-to-order requests the first week of December. Ready to ship items remain listed and ship as stated in their listing.

Shipping times

In the case of any custom or Made To Order item, I try very hard to meet the listed production/ship time for the listed item. However, I am a one-man shop, and the handcrafted nature of the work, particularly during busy periods, can cause delays. If you require your item by a specific date, please inquire first. I do not rush the work, as I want each piece to be exceptional and worthy to the person purchasing it. Thank you for your patience and understanding, and of course, your patronage!
