The Viking hexagon ring was a popular piece of jewelry discovered among archaeological findings throughout Scandinavia. These heavy iron rings were made during the Viking Age, between 800-1050 CE, in a unique hexagon shape. Initially thought to be an Arabic or Byzantine influence on Northern Europe, it is now understood that this jewelry style was an ancient Scandinavian design. Crafted through a traditional forging process with heated metal in molds, it demonstrates the technological skills of the Vikings at the time. The large size and heavy weight of these rings suggest they were typically worn by men. Furthermore, their prominent position on the finger symbolized strength and power amongst Viking society as fierce warriors. Still popular today as an ornamental object for necklaces and bracelets, these rings are a physical reminder of the strength and power evoked from their original bearer centuries ago.
