Vikings were highly skilled metallurgists, and as a result, breaking metal had supernatural significance for them. Breaking ringjarn (iron rings) as shown on the Larbro Stone, was thought to destroy the spirits of enemies. Similarly, Viking weapons and accouterments were broken for burial with their owners. This is a large part of a fine Viking warrior's bronze bracelet. It is about 1” x 2” from the end of a heavy bracelet as worn in battle. It has a raised broadened terminal and a fine medial ridge. It is hand crafted, by a Viking craftsman, 1000 years ago! It has been professionally refurbished with a silver overlay restored and mounted to a Sterling silver neck chain for modern wear. It comes with a certification of authenticity, and a gift box.
