The Scandinavian Bear Ring is a band in 925 sterling silver carved with bears in motion, the animal that Nordic folklore set beside its warriors as a figure of strength and protection. The bears are cut in relief around the band with their fur textured stroke by stroke, so the animals appear to move through the metal instead of sitting still on it.The band carries more than one bear rather than a single head, which turns the ring into a scene that has no front and no back. The bear stands for protective strength and for wild courage, worn as a symbol rather than as a religious piece.
