Find your perfect fit — before the ring finds you.

Lay your string flat and measure the distance between the marks in millimeters.

OPEN BAND RINGS
Select Veilhinge rings feature an open band design and can be gently adjusted ±1 size from their original shipped size for a comfortable fit. To avoid metal fatigue, we recommend minimal and gradual adjustment — do not bend the band back and forth repeatedly.
SIZING TIPS
Measure at the end of the day — fingers are slightly larger then, giving you the most comfortable fit.
If you're between sizes, size up for a more comfortable wear.
Knuckle larger than the base of your finger? Measure both and choose a size in between.
Still unsure? We're here.

Forged in the echo of the North. Rooted in something older than memory.
Yggdrasil — the World Tree — is one of the most enduring images in Norse visual culture, its branching form appearing across Viking Age carvings, runestones, and metalwork for over a thousand years. This ring carries that motif with Yggdrasil engraved on the face and Elder Futhark runes running the full circumference of the band. At the core: a strip of natural wood inlay, warm red-brown grain against dark metal. Two materials. Two textures. One ring built to age with character. No two pieces come out exactly the same — the wood grain sees to that.
If you're drawn to Norse Viking jewelry with genuine craft depth and Nordic aesthetic, this is where ancient motif meets natural material.
Design Highlights
- Yggdrasil (World Tree) engraved on the face — roots, trunk, and branches in miniature
- Elder Futhark rune sequence around the full band — ancient alphabet as living ornament
- Natural wood inlay at center — warm red-brown grain, resin-sealed for durability
- Oxidized bronze finish — distressed, time-worn, wabi-sabi texture
- Smooth polished inner band — comfortable for daily wear
The Design
The Yggdrasil motif appears across centuries of Northern European decorative craft — carved into runestones, woven into textiles, cast into metalwork. This ring pairs that iconic tree form with the Elder Futhark alphabet and a natural wood inlay: a dark aesthetic band that combines Nordic heritage, organic texture, and wabi-sabi craft sensibility. The kind of piece that carries the marks of the hands that made it. Rooted in the old world. Worn in the new.
