What does this jewelry represent?

The Vikings often decorated their jewelry with meaningful symbols. In the Viking world, the Valknut, meaning "knot of fallen warriors", represented Valhalla.

This is the hall of Odin in Asgard. He chooses the bravest of the fallen warriors to live there after death. There they dwell in paradise until they are called on to fight alongside the gods in the final battle of Ragnarok.

The Valknut was used either to indicate that the fallen warrior was in Valhalla or to call the Valkyries to take them to Valhalla and dispel spirits that might want to take them to a different underworld.

This Viking-style arm ring is decorated with repeating Valknut symbols. The Valknut also represents the courage and bravery that is required from a warrior to find himself in Valhalla.

This arm ring is designed to be flexible so that you can open it to put it on and then squeeze it close to tighten it around your wrist. Don't be surprised to hear a quiet crackling sound, but do avoid opening and closing the bracelet excessively.
