Woodstown Viking Cuff Bracelet

The stamped design was very popular in the Viking Age. The bracelet is hand-stamped, oxidised and high-polished

In Viking culture, arm rings were significant multifaceted items used as a display of wealth and status, a form of portable currency known as “hacksilver,” and as symbols for oaths of loyalty and legal agreements. Both men and women wore them.
So, arm rings made of precious metals like gold and silver denoted the wearer’s wealth and social standing. More ornate or heavier rings indicated greater importance, and kings and chieftains were often referred to as “ring-givers” in sagas and poetry, a title of respect for their generosity in distributing wealth to their followers.
In a time before a standardised coin system was widespread, arm rings, particularly those made of silver, functioned as a practical, portable form of currency because they could be easily cut into smaller pieces (known as hacksilver) to pay for goods and services in trade.

The bracelet can be gently fitted onto your wrist. Don’t bend the bracelet too much because the silver is getting harder when you bend it so many times

The stamped design is typical of the Viking Age. The bracelet is handmade using punches.
