#A-SF057 First among the goddesses of the Norse tradition and the wife of Odin, Frigga (Frigg) is generally viewed as the queen of Asgard, and the only one entity aside from Odin permitted to sit on the high throne of Hlidskjalf. Here she is portrayed as a lovely, dignified woman, with a shield in one hand, while with her other she holds upright the distaff after which constellations were named, and which she was known to use in the spinning of wool. Crafted from cold-cast resin and beautifully painted so as to appear to be a statue of polished bronze, this statue measures approx. 9.5" x 7.5" x 2.75".

Frigga, meaning "beloved one", was foremost among the Norse goddesses. She is love and fertility, patron of marriage and motherhood. She was the mother of Baldr (Baldar, Balder) and Hodr (Hod, Hoder, Hodur). It was she who extracted the promise from everything on earth (except, unfortunately, the mistletoe) never to harm Baldar. Her hall was Fensalir, in Asgard. She was believed to know the destiny of every person, but keep the secret. In at least three myths, she pitted her wit and cunning against Odin and won. |
