Viking Raven Ring with Runes
-
Description
Sterling Silver 925 Ring
This is one of my favourite viking designs, taken from a stunning piece of metalwork called the Sollested horse collar from 10th century Denmark. The stylised interlace shows the abstract form of two viking ravens, Huginn and Muninn, the two spirit guides of the god Odin. They represent the power of the mind and served Odin in his quest for wisdom. Their names translate as Thought and Memory and are inscribed in runes on either side of the bird’s heads. Just as these mythical birds were woven into the fate of the world, their bodies are interwoven in the design of the ring.
This is my remodelling of this ancient artwork from our Viking past as a sterling silver raven ring.
Size and Weight
I have made this ring in two sizes. They are open at the back so both are adjustable and you can bend them gently for a perfect fit.
Which size is right for you? As a rough guide: on an average hand, the small ring will fit a female index finger or a male little finger. The large ring will fit an average male index finger.
If you want to be more exact, please measure the circumference of your finger with a strip of paper, and compare your millimeter measurement with this table:
Large ring
At its widest adjustment, this ring will fit 76mm circumference.At a regular adjustment, this ring will fit 64mm circumference.
At its smallest adjustment, this ring will fit 58mm circumference.
Weight Sterling Silver 10g (Weight may vary from piece to piece)
Small ring
At its widest adjustment, this ring will fit 67mm circumference.At a regular adjustment, this ring will fit 59mm circumference.
At its smallest adjustment, this ring will fit 51mm circumference.
Weight Sterling Silver 7.6g (Weight may vary from piece to piece)
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.

AExcellent workExcellent work, truly beautiful jewellery, compliments to the artist. Very good communication when concerns arise. Thank you, keep up the good work.
JAwesomeAwesome ring. Great quality of workmanship and the service was brilliant. The large size makes it a perfect thumb ring which I was hoping. Will definitely be the first place I look at when buying Viking jewelry in the future. Many thanks.
Thanks John
BBeautiful workI bought this ring for my fiancé and he loved it! He can't stop staring at it, saying is so beautiful. I really reccommend this seller, his skills with jewellery are amazing, I'm very glad I found the store.
Thank you Beatriz
HA real eyecatcherThis is the second ring I got from Alban and Rachel, the delivery was super quick and all the communication was fantastic.
The ring is stunning. I strive to have a full raven set someday but this is a wonderful starting point. It looks great from every angle and the design is eyecatching without being too complex. It's a bit of a shame that the backside looks as good as it does because I won't be able to look at it much when wearing the ring haha. Oh and it fits amazing too :)
Cheers from Germany!Thank you!
