Product Description

VIKING/SWEDEN
9th - 11th Century

The original rock crystal necklace on which our jewelry is based was found on the island of Gotland in Sweden. It consists of eleven rock crystals in silver settings and ten granulated silver beads of varying sizes. This rare design is believed to have drawn its inspiration from Slavic fashion, most likely acquired through trade or raiding. From ancient to medieval times, rock crystal was believed to have talismanic properties.
