This pewter bracelet is based on one made of silver, that was found in a hoard of Viking treasure in Galloway, Scotland in 2014. During the Viking age, bracelets such as this had a dual purpose as personal decoration, and a convenient way of carrying cash, as silver was used as currency in everyday transactions in the Viking age. This bracelet features a stamped geometric design with a sawtooth pattern on the sides. This Bracelet is handmade in Asgard's workshop in Scotland and is cast in lead-free solid Pewter. Pewter is a malleable metal alloy that is composed mostly of tin and is often used in jewelry because of its strength and durability and is suitable for fastening tunics and dresses.
