MerkenReplica of a braided Viking neck ring.
Here you can buy an authentic Viking neck ring that was made according to the historical model of a Torque from the Viking Age, which dates back to around 900 AD.
The model for this authentic Viking neck ring comes from the hoard find of Eskilstuna in Södermanland, Sweden, which was made of twisted silver wires.
Typical for the neck rings of the Vikings were several twisted wires made of bronze or silver, which could be easily bent up and down and thus easily put on.
You can buy the neck ring replica made from high-quality bronze wire, which has an excellent flexibility and also in genuine silver-plated.
This braided Viking neck ring is suitable for a neck circumference of up to approx. 45 cm.
The diameter is about 15 cm. Therefore, this Viking neck ring is suitable for women and men of normal stature.
The Viking neck ring has a thickness of 8 mm and is with only about 100 grams weight still very comfortable to wear, so that the neck ring is hardly noticeable after a short time.
The Torque is generally known more as the jewellery of the Celtic warrior, but in almost all Central European peoples of antiquity, the neck ring was common as jewellery. Until the migration period, neck rings were worn by the Germanic tribes even by women.
In the course of late antiquity, the neck ring became an exclusive male jewellery and remained in Northern Europe even until the Viking Age. The neck rings of the Vikings were usually made of narrow silver or bronze wires in twisted or braided form and usually ended in a hook closure.
