Thorleif Ring
The Thorleif's Cross was created between the middle and end of the 10th century in the typical form of Celtic crosses with a central ring, with the special features being the three braided bands in the Scandinavian Mammen style carved out of the stone of the cross and a Viking Age runic inscription, the content of which reads: "Thorleif erected this cross in memory of Fiac his son, his brother's son heir". This ring is based on the motif from the Thorleifs Cross located on the Isle of Man in the Mammen art style..
The ring measures approx. 1.6 cm at its widest point and is available in 3 sizes.
The finger ring is open, with parallel ends that overlap each other by approx. 12 mm.
This means that the diameter of the Viking-era ring can easily be reduced or increased by a few ring sizes - this means that the expressive ring fits almost every finger with only three different sizes.
Ring sizes:
S = 17.3 mm - EU 53 - 56 / US 6.5 - 8
M = 19.3 mm - EU 58 - 63 / US 8.5 - 10
L = 21.3 mm - EU 64 - 69 / US 11 - 12.5
If not know, to determine your ring size, do the following:
- Use a piece of string or dental floss and wrap it around the base of your finger.
- Use a pen to mark the point on the string where the end meets.
- Use a millimeter ruler to measure the string.
- Choose the closest measurement to the chart above to find your ring size.
Tips for best results:
- Allow enough room to accommodate your knuckle.
- Bear in mind, different fingers on the same and the opposite hand may have different sizes. Therefore, measure the specific finger on which you are planning to wear the ring.
- Measure your finger at the end of the day when your finger is likely to be largest.
