‘…hold the roots…’


‘It is people like you who hold the roots and give back to many who thought they were lost.’ Rhiannon Scharfetter – Vienna, Austria https://myskaldkonur.com

‘I have been suggested to contact you, a Viking specialist, for your competence and sensibility to the problems of those interested in ancient objects.’ Antonio Barsotti – Pisa, Italy. 

Book Vikings and the artefacts from the Viking Age (published October 2025) image on front: Luit van der Tuuk. (Wessel Spoelder on Facebook group Medieval Finds: “Sometimes you come across a book that manages to present a well-worn subject with such clarity and freshness that it immediately captures your attention. That is exactly what happens when you open Vikings and Artefacts from the Viking Age.
Unlike many other books on this period, this work does not get bogged down in dry dates. It succeeds in a unique way in explaining who the Vikings really were and where they came from. The text is accessible and enlightening, bringing history to life before your eyes.
What makes this book a real ‘breath of fresh air’, however, is its focus on the metal artefacts. The beautiful, detailed photographs of the objects – from fibulae to weaponry – draw you into the story. You can see the craftsmanship and the spirit of the makers reflected in every item discussed. It is not just a book to read, but also a visual tribute to Viking culture.
For anyone who is even slightly curious about this fascinating period: look no further. This book is an absolute must-read and a gem for your bookshelf!”

Tariffs/tarieven 

Dear all:

for consulting me for advice on artefacts I ask a fee.

This is dependant on the time I need for research and giving you an advice.

For questions I satisfactally can reply to within an hour, I ask € 10 fee.

For requests for advice wich require over an hour work, we have to come to an agreement.

I am looking forward helping you.

Note: getting to know more about an object is priceless and adds intrinsic ánd financial value to the object one researches, has – or is planning – to buy or aquire. A good advice can protect you for buying an expensive “viking” object wich isn’t viking or is false or a forgery.
Good advice on basis of over 20 years of research and knowledge is priceless.
