Frey
Figure depicting the Viking god Freyr. The original figure was discovered in 1904 as a stray find in a garden at Rällinge Farm, Lunda Parish, Södermanland. The figure is approximately 9 cm tall. Storage bag included.
The figure portrays a seated, naked male with a conical headpiece and a prominent phallic symbol. Beneath the prominent nose, upturned mustaches extend toward the earlobes. With his right hand, he grasps his long pointed beard, as if stroking or pulling it. A sturdy arm ring adorns his right wrist. The left arm is broken off at the elbow. Freyr is associated with fertility, prosperity, and abundance.

Scanglas sells handcrafted products made from various materials such as glass, metal, horn, bone, and wood. Each product is unique, with natural variations in color, finish, size, and shape that reflect the charm of genuine craftsmanship.
Our historical glassware consists of meticulously crafted replicas that capture the 2000-year history of glassblowing. Each piece is mouth-blown and handmade, featuring details such as decorations and glass threads, giving them an authentic character. A hallmark of handmade glass is the punt mark on the underside, the softly rounded edge on the rim, and subtle variations in size, thickness, and details. The specially formulated glass material mimics historical color tones and includes small air bubbles and structural variations, which together contribute to the glassware's unique and genuine character.
In addition to glass, we also offer products made of metal, horn, bone, and wood. These items are carefully crafted using traditional techniques to preserve their natural properties and highlight the authenticity of the craftsmanship.
