The Scandinavian Warrior Ring is a ring in 925 sterling silver carrying Norse warrior motifs: axes set among braided knotwork that wraps around the band. Knotwork of this kind, an interlacing line with no visible beginning or end, is one of the standard ornaments of Viking-age metalwork.The axes are the figures and the braid is the ground they sit in, so the ring is worked the whole way around rather than on a single face. Axe and knot together stand for strength and for the bonds of loyalty in Norse tradition, worn as a cultural symbol rather than as a religious piece.
