Before the world was fully formed, the gods set two great lights in the sky — and to Sol they gave the sun. She rides her blazing chariot across the heavens each day, pursued by the wolf Sköll, her horses Árvakr and Alsviðr pulling the sun ever forward. In Norse and Germanic mythology, Sol (also called Sól or Sunna) is the goddess of the sun, a radiant force of warmth, light, and the turning of time itself — revered in Asatru and Norse pagan traditions as a powerful presence on the altar. This hand-carved mini statue brings her luminous energy into your sacred space, carved from our ecological ash wood mini statue collection with a lacquer finish.
Each piece is individually crafted — no two are identical. The natural grain of the ash wood gives every Sol statue its own character, making it a truly unique addition to your Wiccan and pagan altar or home.
