Wolf of Odin Leather Wrap Bracelet

€18.50

This bound leather bracelet draws inspiration from Viking bracers, which were worn in combat and it features a wolf's head charm plate. Bracers were primarily used by archers to protect their forearms from the bowstring, and warriors often wore them to support and safeguard their weak wrist joints, as a failure could spell disaster on the battlefield. The bracelet can be easily adjusted and secured via a clasp on the back, and it is available in various leather and metal colours.

 

Wolves hold significant importance in Norse mythology. Odin, the Norse god, created the first wolves to accompany him on his travels, naming them Geri and Freki, which mean 'the ravenous' and 'the greedy one.' These wolves populated the world with their offspring, and humans learned cooperation and care from them. In Nordic culture, wolves symbolize strength and community, often depicted in religious art and carved into everyday items and charms.
