9th-11th century AD. 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 segment of a fine Viking woman warrior's bronze bracelet broken in the funerary process. It is over ½” by about 7/8” and decorated with double borders flanking a curvilinear figure. The surface is textured from burial.  It was handcrafted by a Viking artisan 1000 years ago! It has been professionally refurbished with a 24karat gold overlay and mounted to an 18” gilt Sterling silver neck chain for modern wear. It comes with certification of authenticity, and gift boxed.
