Guldgubbers are one to two centimeter tall figures made of gold leaf. They appear exclusively in Scandinavia and were very common in the Germanic Iron Age with 3000 finds in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Most of the Guldgubbers recovered on the Danish island of Bornholm.
Three main motifs can be distinguished: man, woman, kissing couples and animals. It is not clear what function the golden men had. They could have been votive offerings or means of payment in a ritual context. In rare cases, the gold plates are pierced for stitching and some Guldgubbers even have buttonholes.
Guldubbers were made of small pieces of gold foil, often extremely thin, and often show a pair of lovers embracing, which is interpreted as a fertility motif or a representation of a pair of gods.
The first gold plate figurines were created in the Germanic Iron Age from around 375 and continued to be used until the Viking Age, with the heyday of the Guldgubbers peaking in the Vendel period between AD 550 and 800. c.
