Like many other warring civilizations of the past, the Vikings had a unique culture. One of the most outstanding styles of life for the Vikings was their Norse knots.
These knots permeated almost every aspect of their lives.
Like most ancient cultures, the Norse people revered animals and plants. As such, we can see that most Viking and Celtic knotwork include animal or plant patterns.
Most of these artworks would have some kind of runic inscription, either within the piece itself or around the knotwork.
One of the main reasons many believers in the old Norse ways engraved animals such as dragons alongside their knotwork was to help ward off some evil or chaotic spirits that were believed to dwell in that area.
Art made by Scandinavians during the Viking Age mostly encompassed the decoration of functional objects made of wood, bone, metal, stone, textile and other materials with relief carvings, engravings of animal shapes and abstract patterns. The motif of the stylised animal (‘zoomorphic’ art) – Viking Age art’s most popular motif.
Ravens, wolves, and dragons were all important animals in Viking mythology and culture.
Due to their strength and durability since ancient times, the horns/antlers of animals were used in the manufacture of weapons and jewelry.
Care: do not wet, and wear with pleasure.
