Runic Ring - XR234

When Norsemen first came to Orkney in the eighth century, the settlers brought with them the art of rune carving - a simple alphabet usually carved in wood, bone or stone with a blade or axe head. Our designers have given these handsome pieces an air of Viking originality, with their simple, bold forms carved with authentic Viking runes. The runic characters translate as the romantic phrase 'Love, Loyalty, and Friendship'
