Viking Age Tricep Arm Ring

This viking upper arm ring is inspired by an archaeological find from Hedeby, Denmark, one of the most important viking age trading centers. Unlike traditional wrist armrings, this design is longer and more flexible, specifically crafted to be worn around the bicep or triceps, making it a unique and historically significant accessory. The original artifact is preserved at the Viking Museum in Haithabu, Denmark, but now you can own a replica of this Norse design.

Armrings were among the most valuable and symbolic items in the Viking Age, frequently mentioned in sagas as gifts, oath rings, and ritual offerings. Worn by warriors, nobles, and traders, these rings carried deep cultural significance and were treasured as a sign of loyalty, honor, and strength.
