Heritage

Embrace the Wisdom of the Tree of Life

In Viking lore, Yggdrasil was the sacred ash tree that stood at the center of the Nine Realms. It was the bridge between worlds—Asgard, Midgard, and Hel—where gods convened and fates were woven. Norse seafarers and warriors revered Yggdrasil as a symbol of stability and endurance, often carving tree motifs into their artifacts, jewelry, and rune stones.

The designs in this collection echo those ancient patterns, honoring the Viking belief in the interconnectedness of all life.

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.
