Found this in a field near Sortavala. Other finds in that field were Scandinavian brooches and Swedish coins from 1600's. I'd like to date this pendant - is it older than 1400-1500s? I wasn't able to find any similar pieces online. Thank you!

I look picture for you, but I am quite sure that it is from Viking age!

Thank you! I haven't yet seen a piece that would be close to identical. Ducks were a popular inspiration animal for centuries!

The metal looks close to this: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=16444#p192811

The dotted pattern is what makes me think the pendant may be from around Viking times, because I think they (dots) were a popular pattern back then.
