Valknut Sterling Silver Ring

The Vikings were such ferocious warriors because they did not fear death.

There was no greater honor for a Viking warrior than to die bravely on the battlefield.

They knew that they would be taken to Valhalla, to live in the hall of Odin, until they were called on again to fight alongside the god in the final battle of Ragnarok.

The Valknut, which means knot of fallen warriors, is the symbol of that Viking belief.

It is found throughout the Viking world, always in association with the dead.

It is believed that it was either used to symbolize that the fallen was in Valhalla, or as a magical symbol to call on the Valkyries to take the soul there.

It may also have been repelled to prevent other spirits from taking the soul to Helheim, the other Norse underworld.

Invoke the fearlessness of the Viking way of life with this detailed and distinctive sterling silver Valknut ring.
