This bronze bracelet represents a compelling example of medieval personal adornment shaped by the artistic and symbolic traditions of the Viking Age. Formed as an open circular hoop, the bracelet terminates at both ends in stylised animal-head forms, whose elongated shape and subtle detailing evoke serpent-like characteristics. Across ancient cultures, particularly within Indo-European traditions, serpents occupied a complex position in mythological thought, embodying both fear and reverence. From Northern Europe to South Asia, early societies observed the natural world closely and translated these observations into symbolic forms. The serpent, with its sinuous body and cyclical life patterns, became a powerful visual language through which concepts of vigilance, transformation, and cosmic order were explored. In Viking visual culture, animal motifs—especially serpentine forms—were frequently incorporated into personal ornaments, weapons, and dress accessories. Such designs were not merely decorative but reflected a broader worldview in which humans, animals, and cosmic forces were interconnected. Comparable bracelets and animal-terminal ornaments are preserved in museum collections and archaeological contexts across Scandinavia and Viking-influenced regions of Northern Europe. The robust bronze construction and balanced proportions suggest that the bracelet was intended for regular wear, functioning as both a personal adornment and a visible expression of cultural identity. Its form allows the viewer to appreciate how ancient symbolic ideas were subtly embedded into everyday objects without overt narrative depiction. Dimensions: 65 × 55 mm
