Oseberg style combat bracers

Those combat bracers were sold on april 2016, but we're so proud to this Norse pattern (I guess the Oseberg style is one of the most complex and intricate styles for knotworking) that we'll probably make a new pair for the shop, using the same dragon but different shape and colours in a near future.

A CUFF CALLED EDDA...

A brand new item for sale, we call it Edda simply because it is based in one of our early shapes for a cuff. The leather is covered with pure olive oil, fisrt class veg tanned skin, as always hand tooled and dyed. The carved patrrtern is, as aklways too, an own design. You can found details and a purchase item here:

Golden Dragon Bracer.


More bracers. This is a step forward in our designs, because this one is painted with gold tincture. We must say that gold tincture is not the same as golden tincture, because the gold one is made from real dust of gold.

Odroerir box


Some pyrography. The central symbol is Odroerir, with the three horns containing the mead of poetry stolen by Odin in Suttung home. This design contains the whole Elder Futhark, something obvious talking about wisdom and poetry isn't it? The box sides are adorned with dragons inspired by the Oseberg style.

Wes hal!

Jörmungandr



More dragons for today's entry. This dragon is so special for us for a simple reason: it was the first one we did for a bracer. We were looking for something "viking" and there's no viking stuff without dragons and sea serpents isn't it? We will do a new version for this bracer in the future, keep tunned.

Viking Bracer



More viking stuff. We love dragons, specially Viking and Celtic dragons! It was a temptation to make another viking design for this bracer...

Waes hal!

Old Cuffs



Those are the first bracers we did following this double leather pattern. We were bored of one piece typical bracers, black dyed with nailheads, then we did those ones mixing nails with tooled leather in a viking way. The really first ones were the couple below, those with the Aegishjalmr (Helm of Awe). The Aegishjalmr was a Bindrune, usually carried between the eyes or in a helmet, confering an awful panic on the bearer's enemies. It is said that Aegishjalm is the lost Odin's eye, some kind of a "third eye" able to mesmerize a foe in all cases. It is also called "The eye of Fafner" as it results reading the Völsunga saga and Niebelung myths.

By the way, the bracer in the up side of the picture was another comission for a girl, she wanted a simple black version with a celtic knot, but we arrange to include it in the final pic.

Wassail!!

Dragons Box



Some Celtic inspiration now. Dragons are a classic creature in Celtic mythology as well, so...what's better than a knotted dragon? Just a knotted dragon surrounded by more dragons and knots.

Enjoy!

Jelling Bracer



Another "archeological" bracer. Our inspirantion was the Jelling style (Denmark 10th century), with a pattern found in a brooch showing a knot shaped dragon. We must say that this kind of bracers with nailheads are made with a protection layers on the bracer's inner side, avoiding any wearer skin damage.

Heilsa!!

Dragon Beltbags



Today is a chance for beltbags.

Turning back to ancient uses and considering the viking age structures, with celtic knots and Othal Rune, meaning the tribe and family kinship.
The central ornament is a typical nordic dragon, knot shaped, something common in elder germanic art manifestations.

The bags are absolutely hand tooled, and taking apart from the common ways, it's sewed with heavy sewing thread, instead the classic leather ropes.

Heilsa!!
