Viking Beads with Norse Runes for Jewelry or Beards/Hair/Dreadlocks

Viking Runes were more than just the letters or characters of a written language. They also had strong symbolism, and were thought to imbue some of that into whatever object they marked. That's why we're offering this line of Viking / Norse beads which are perfect for any project or purpose you might have for them. They're great for necklaces and pendants, or adding to a beard or dreadlock for a stylish accent. They have a rune on one side and a stylized ship design on the other (which also cleverly gives the impression of a Viking helmet when the ship is turned upside down). These beads are all Silver in color, and made of fine pewter which is lead-free and safe to wear. They measure 0.75 inches in height (or 1.9 cm). The hole size is 8 mm. You really can't go wrong with these. These beads are truly beautiful and unique treasures that will last many lifetimes.
