For the Seafarer’s Spirit
Channel the daring voyages of Viking explorers with these longships, symbols of drengskapr (courage) that carried warriors from the fjords of Midgard to uncharted realms. The longship, or drakkar, was the lifeblood of Norse expansion – immortalized in sagas like Egils Saga and artifacts like the 9th-century Oseberg ship. Crafted using cold-forging techniques inspired by Viking smiðir (blacksmiths), these earrings capture the intricate prow carvings that once warded off Jörmungandr’s fury, blending ancestral artistry with modern metallurgical resilience.
