      Sterling Silver 925 Ring 

      The winged raven of Viking legend was the inspiration for the Viking raven ring.

      There are many references to ravens in the poetry of the vikings and many examples of viking art show the image of this mythical bird.

      The raven was a powerful motif for the vikings, a symbol of the power of the mind and a connection to the spirit world. In short, what the vikings thought of as wisdom.

      As a spirit animal, the raven could act as guide for the shaman to the Otherworld.

      Odin, as god of magic, has two ravens Huginn and Muninn – Thought and Memory – who aid him in his constant quest for wisdom. He is referrred to as Hrafnaguth, the Raven God.

      I was inspired to make this ring when I came across two garter hooks in the 9th - 10th century Borre style depicting a raven. I have extended the winged raven design to wrap around the finger.

      Size and Weight 

      I have made this ring in 3 sizes, but each size is adjustable and can be carefully bent for a perfect fit.

      Which size is right for you?
      As a rough guide, the large ring will fit a large male finger. The medium ring will fit a medium sized man's finger or a large woman's. The small ring will fit a medium to small female finger.

      If you want to be more exact, we suggest you measure the circumference of your finger with a strip of paper and check the sizes described below.

      At its widest adjustment, this ring will fit 75mm circumference.

      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.

      A Ring for a King

      "Two ravens flew from _inns shoulders - Huginn to the hanged and Muninn to the slain."
      Another stunning piece of art made by Alban, the master of silver craftsmanship.
      This ring is very beautiful in the pictures, but it's more beautiful when you're wearing it.
      If you order the right size for your finger it will fit perfectly because you can gently adjust it.
      This one became by far my favourite Viking ring and I'm so glad and proud to wear it all the time except my gym workouts.

      Thanks Radu
