It's been a while (close to two years I think), but for those of you who have held on here is some of my recent silver work, all direct or close replicas of originals from Viking-Age Scandinavia. Since my last update I've officially gotten my business license and registered Hearthfire Nordic Wares in Washington State, started doing merchant stuff at events as well as expanding my online shop and had my work featured in two stores as well as the Nordic Museum in Ballard. So, my time away has certainly been productive.

Some projects from this last week: Gotland style arm rings in brass and bronze. A silver ring based off of a find from Birka. It still needs to be bent to shape and polished, but it's getting there. Two stump anvils; the flat-top one is based on a find from Trelleborg and the rounded one is based on an original from the Mästermyr find.

Four arm rings (two brass and two fine silver), two sterling silver money rings and a sterling silver Gotland mjölnir pendant done yesterday!

Fyra nya armringar är nästan klara, två av finsilver och två av mässing; de behöver bara att poleras imorgon. Den till nedre höger är såld, men de andra ska vara tillgängliga!

I'm building a decent hoard. Gotland pattern Viking bracelets in brass, bronze and fine silver.
