| Nordic Lights Celtic and Viking Jewelry The Viking civilization flourished 700 AD to 1,000 AD throughout northern Europe where the harsh Viking homelands of Scandinavia shaped a hardy and often ferocious people who yearned to travel the world. Artists and craftsmen, working in gold, copper, silver and bronze, evolved a distinctive design style in which strands are plated and interlaced with animal-like creatures. Viking men wore bracelets and pendants, and women - who held high status and could divorce unsatisfactory husbands - delighted in brooches, pendants and decorative dress-fastenings. The Vikings concealed hoards of ornaments and silver believing that what was buried would be enjoyed in the afterlife - in Valhalla. Through archeological finds of treasure-trove, we can experience the wonder of the Viking age, which we have re-created here in this unique range of pendants. |
