Wisdom and Power Forged in Metal
This ring intertwines the sacred symbols of Odin’s twin ravens, Huginn (Thought) and Muninn (Memory), with the Valknut’s triple triangles – motifs found on 9th-century Stora Hammars runestones and the Oseberg ship carvings. Ravens guided Viking warriors as omens of Odin’s gaze, while the Valknut marked those chosen for Valhalla. Forged in 316L stainless steel using cold-casting techniques perfected by Norse smiðir (blacksmiths), the band’s durability mirrors Ulfberht swords, with raven wings etched at 0.2mm precision to honor Gotland’s picture stone artistry.
Features
- Huginn & Muninn guardians – Laser-etched ravens mirror carvings from the Tjängvide image stone

- Midgard-proof steel – 316L alloy defies tarnish like Thor’s hammer repels decay
- Hypoallergenic resilience – Nickel-free for sensitive húð (skin), worthy of Freyja’s touch
- Wolf’s ferocity – Snarling motif channels berserkr warriors’ primal spirit
