VIKING JEWELLERY COLLECTION
When we think of the Vikings, we often picture their weapons rather than their jewellery.
Yet Norse burial sites and Viking hoards discovered across Sweden, Denmark, Norway, the United Kingdom, and Ireland reveal a wealth of stunning Viking jewellery for men, showcasing the pride and care Vikings took in self-adornment.
Much like Celtic jewellery, Viking adornments were crafted with strength and durability in mind, built to endure the harsh demands of both battle and daily life—essential for a people who were not only warriors but also farmers tending their fields.
Worn by both men and women, jewellery served as more than mere decoration; it reflected the wearer’s social rank, familial heritage, allegiances, and deeply held beliefs.
Their intricate designs often drew inspiration from Norse mythology, featuring motifs like Thor’s hammer, the World Tree Yggdrasil, or animals such as ravens and wolves, symbolizing strength, protection, and a spiritual connection to the divine.
Today, the artistry and rich symbolism of Viking jewellery continue to inspire and captivate, offering a timeless window into the values and craftsmanship of this remarkable culture.
