Winged Viking Raven Ring
-
Description
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.

The items themselves were perfect 👌 and ive already place my third order .DWinged Viking Age Raven RingI have been extremely pleased with my Winged Viking Raven Ring. In fact, it has quickly become part of my daily wear.
The ring has a substantial feel without being uncomfortable, and the detail of the raven and its sweeping wings is exceptional. I especially appreciate that the design draws its inspiration from Viking Age Borre-style finds rather than simply being a modern piece with a vaguely “Viking” appearance. That historical connection gives the ring considerably more meaning to me.
The craftsmanship is immediately apparent in person. It is distinctive, beautifully made, comfortable on the hand, and has the weight and presence I expect from quality sterling silver.
This is another outstanding piece from Northan Viking Silver and exactly the kind of craftsmanship that keeps me coming back to Alban and Rachel. I wear this ring every day, and I expect I will be wearing it for many years to come.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a meaningful, beautifully crafted piece of Viking-inspired silver.![David Hervey review photo]()
