Viking Serpent Ring

Sterling Silver 925 Ring 

This ring is my own design, using the simple elegance of the Urnes viking art style from the 11^th century. The Urnes animal imagery is very stylised and is open to interpretation. Some people see the pattern on this ring as a viking serpent or dragon. This motif occurs often in viking art, symbolising the balancing forces of nature and protection against harm. Alternatively it could represent a swan. The swan occurs in Viking legend as the bird form of the swan maidens, nature spirits who were guardians of the natural world.

I have remade the flowing lines of this ancient Urnes motif as a ring for the 21^st century. You will have to let your heart decide the meaning of the pattern.

I have made this ring in four sizes. They are open so are adjustable and you can bend them gently for a perfect fit.

You can adjust the ring easily yourself by using a piece of wood, or something similar, to prise the ring open, or to tap it to a smaller size.  There is a film about how to do this on our YouTube Channel. You can copy this link into your browser  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSHPWaQP_8A&t=32s

If you prefer, you can add a note to your order and we will adjust the ring for you to a specific size.
