Sterling Silver Choker necklace - Viking weave

By Abby Hook

Sterling Silver Choker necklace - Viking weave

The handmade chain is created using double Viking knit, which I have finished with handmade end caps and a handmade clasp.

Nearly 1,300 years ago, Vikings used long pieces of silver and gold wire to weave ropes. These woven wire ropes were then stretched and made into jewellery for powerful Viking leaders. This wire weaving is called Viking knit (or trichinopoly chain).

The chain is 15 1/2” long.

This item comes in a jewellery box.
