Learn About Jewelry in the Viking Age

We believe in educating about Viking culture. Below we will share the meaning behind jewelry — the stories, ideas, and mythology connected to different pieces — as well as the Heritage — where we clarify what is historically accurate or a modern interpretation of what the Viking people wore during this time.

Meaning

Status and Attribution

Jewelry was more than an accessory for Vikings. It reflected their beliefs, identity, and connection to the gods. Many pieces carried deep symbolism, representing individual gods and drawing powers from them.

Thor’s hammer, Mjölnir, was one of the most common pendants, worn as a sign of faith in the thunder god and as a talisman for protection. Serpents, wolves, and ravens often adorned rings and amulets, symbolizing power, ferocity, and wisdom. Runes were etched into bracelets and pendants, believed to hold magical power and provide guidance to those who wore them.

Each piece of Viking jewelry told a story — a seafarer's journey, a trader’s wealth, a warrior's triumph, a loved one’s memory — making it a deeply personal and spiritual part of their lives.

Heritage

From Unburied Finds to Inspired Creations

Many people have come to learn about Viking culture through tv shows and movies, which we love. However, there are many misinterpretations and inaccuracies we have found as well. It is often oversized pieces and unfamiliar patterns. We do appreciate modern interpretations and evolutions of styles, though we also aim to include in our collection pieces that either reflect archaeological findings, or those inspired by Norse mythology and Viking values.

As you look through our Viking jewelry collection, you will find a mix of pieces matching real jewelry from over a thousand years ago, to modern creations that channel the Viking spirit and craftsmanship. Your jewelry selection is about the symbolism that connects to your spirit and what carries special meaning to you personally, just as it had for each individual past Viking.

The Meaning Behind “Vikheim”

The name Vikheim came to us after deeply exploring what kind of impact we wanted to make in this space. There are many websites and shops focused on Vikings, and we wanted to bring a unique angle. We knew part of this was helping others understand Viking heritage and the stories and meaning within Norse mythology. The purpose was to help others find connection.

Where do people feel they are when they do find a deep, innate connection? Home. The word “Heim” in Old Norse means Home. Merging that into the word “Viking”, we found our name, as the home of Viking, Vikheim.
