| Description |
Viking neck-ring twisted from pairs of silver rods and features solid, dome-shaped terminals. Though these are of usual form, in other respects the object is typical of various other Viking-age neck-rings. Several hundred silver neck-rings of this date are on record. Most are from Scandinavia itself. |
