Behind the Design: The Gullorm takes its name from the Old Norse roots Gull (gold) and Ormr (serpent), a direct reference to the "Gold Serpent" aesthetic of this piece. This design is centered around a detailed snake head and tail hook clasp, braid is crafted from gold-tone copper wire and clasp is a metal alloy . The serpent design functions as a traditional Ouroboros, an ancient symbol of eternity and the cyclical nature of time. To create a seamless golden appearance, the band is meticulously woven from 26 gauge gold-tone plated copper wire. Built for durability and functional everyday wear, this bracelet offers a warm, high-end studio look that emphasizes the symbolic power of the golden serpent.

Quick Answers

How do I care for the bracelet?
Built for daily wear — put it on before work and go. Take it off before the gym, the shower, swimming, or bed, and avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, and abrasive surfaces. The finish is durable for everyday wear, but moisture and friction can dull it over time. To clean, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store in a dry place.

What is a Viking Knit bracelet?
A Viking knit bracelet is made by knitting wire into a dense, flexible tube of interlinked loops rather than using pre-made chain. The tube is then pulled through a series of smaller holes in a plate until the desired diameter.

Is this the same as a standard chain bracelet?
No. A Viking knit bracelet is built from knitted wire, which gives it a different texture, construction, and overall feel than standard chain.

Is this bracelet handcrafted?
Yes. Each bracelet is knit by hand, so slight variation is part of the process.

Is the bracelet flexible or rigid?
The woven section has some flexibility but is not meant to be bent into tight angles. Applying too much force can damage the structure.

How do you open and close the ouroboros clasp?
Slide the tail out of the ring in the snake head to open the clasp. To close it, guide the tail back through the ring in the snake head until it is seated securely.

Tip: Hold the bracelet close to the clasp for better control when opening and closing.
