Information: Both Viking men and women wore jewellery. The function of the richest jewellery was to clearly display wealth and status, as much as for decoration or to fasten clothing.
Viking jewellery developed into intricate and masterful artistry, with a strong preference for silver. The main themes were patterns of nature and animals, mythology, as well as simple geometric patterns.
