Valkyria bracelet
Valkyria is variant of ancient chainmaille weave. Chainmaille’s origin is from vikings, which gave me inspiration of this weave. Beautiful bracelet got it’s name from viking myths. According to Norse myths, the Valkyries were romanticized as Odin’s Shield-Maidens, virgins with golden hair and snowy arms. In this bracelet, gold filled beads are dancing in the chainmaille as Valkyrias in Norwegian legend of Valhalla.
