Bring the Viking Age into your home with this authentic Dragon Snake wall decal. A historical design based on the Swedish Lingsberg Runestone, symbolizing power, protection, and mystery.
This striking serpent-like dragon design originates directly from a historical Swedish artifact: The Lingsberg Runestone (U 240). Erected in the 11th century in Uppland, Sweden, this stone is a vital testimony to Nordic mythology and history. It was originally raised to honor a man named Ulvrik. We have meticulously traced the mystical creature from the stone to create this authentic wall decor.
The Design The artwork depicts a dragon creature—often associated with the legendary dragon Fafnir or the Midgard Serpent—featuring a long, intricately intertwined tail and a large head with distinct oval eyes. It captures the mesmerizing artistic style of the late Viking Age.
Symbolism of Power While the exact meaning of the serpent-dragon on runestones remains a subject of fascination, the dragon is universally recognized as a mysterious and potent being. It stands as a symbol for:
Power & Strength
Influence
Protection
The Cycle of Life and Death
For Fans of the North This wall decal is a unique and personal gift idea for fans of Nordic Mythology, Vikings, and anyone fascinated by the history of Sweden and ancient Runestones. It brings the mystique of the North directly to your walls.

Color Selection
To test the color in advance and to check whether your surface is suitable for our wall decals, we recommend ordering our color sample card with a sample wall decal in your desired colors. Not every wall paint or surface is suitable!
A little trick is to test the adhesive strength in advance with a regular adhesive tape for 1-2 days. If the tape (please test for 1-2 days) sticks well, the surface is very likely suitable for our self-adhesive wall decals. To be on the safe side, order test strips in your desired colors.
Our wall decals are suitable for:

Wallpapers (including most woodchip/textured wallpapers)
Wall paints with a high content of silicates (potassium silicate), silicones, latex, acrylic, and synthetic resins.

A little trick is to test the adhesive strength in advance with regular adhesive tape for 1-2 days. If the tape (please test for 1-2 days) sticks well, the surface is very likely suitable for our self-adhesive wall decals. To be on the safe side, order test strips in your desired colors.
Freshly painted walls should be allowed to dry for at least 14 days. For freshly plastered walls, the waiting time should be even longer.
Adhesive films should be mounted shortly after delivery and not stored over several months. A dry, dust-free place, not below 10°C and not above 30°C, is best suited for storage.
The bonding temperature should be at least 15°C. Cold and damp walls can make it difficult to affix.
Before you start mounting, the adhesive film should be unrolled and left in the same room as the surface to be glued for about an hour. This allows the material to adapt to the room temperature. Please pay special attention to this in winter when the wall decal or sticker is delivered in a cold state.
Temperature differences during transport can cause bubbles to form. These do not affect the quality of our products. The air inclusions can be carefully smoothed out with the squeegee.
Our wall decal should only be stored for a few weeks and should be applied to the wall soon after delivery.
