FREE & Fast UK Delivery
This bead can be used on mighty beards and long hair to complete your Viking look. It features the Vegvisir symbol which will help to guide you home safely, even after drinking a horn full of mead.
The Vegvisir (Icelandic Vegvísir, “That Which Shows the Way;” pronounced “VEGG-vee-seer”) is a symbol found only in one modern Icelandic collection of spells, the so-called Huld manuscript. That book has nothing more than this one sentence to say about it: “If this sign is carried, one will never lose one’s way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known.”
This highly detailed bead is made in the UK from 925 Sterling Silver, hand cast using the traditional lost wax method. The bead is oxidised for deeper contrast showing a vast array of finishing details such as the rope design at the top and bottom of the bead, the triquetra knots encasing the symbol in an intertwined pattern and accentuating the patterned background that ties it all together.
