Deyr fé, deyja frændr, deyr sjálfr et sama; ek veit einn, at aldri deyr: dómr um dauðan hvern. Cattle die, kinsmen die you yourself die; I know one thing which never dies: the judgment of a dead man's life. A beautifully handcrafted etched and antiqued brass armband featuring a central helm of awe, a symbol of powerful protection, and an inscription in Elder Futhark runes in old Norse of the famous words above from the Havamal (sayings of the high one, Odin). Engraved (indented) design armband with a darkened antiqued brass finish Available in 1.5mm thick brass or copper or heavy 3mm thick solid copper.

Each is handmade and totally unique. No two are the same. The photograph is an example only. All items are made to order. On request, we will send you photographs of your particular item prior to dispatch for your approval.

Unless otherwise stated your piece will come coated in a tough invisible transparent lacquer to protect the finish however over time and depending on how its treated this coating may break down. As such, depending on your body chemistry and atmospheric conditions this piece may leave a harmless greenish deposit on the skin. This is easily washed off and can be minimized by keeping the ring clean and dry or lacquering/waxing it yourself.
