Nidhogg Torque [Silver]

Inspired by an archaeological finding, and adapted for northern and medieval roleplay, this torque is a fine craftwork of ancient silver.

The torque is provided in Male and Female sizes,each with two different attachment points to better fit any avatar. Resize scripted. The scripts can self-delete after resizing, if desired, to eliminate all lag.

The Torque or Torq was for Celts not only a simple jewel but a mystic object, a catalysing talisman to bring man closer to the Gods, invoking their mystic energy to course through his body.Celt warriors went to battle wearing only their torques, this object their only divine protection against all harm.

Nidhogg was the Viking serpent of immortality thriving in the dark underworld of Niflhelm. Its image on torques and jewels was used to bestow upon the wearer the ability to resolve difficulties and to survive and triumph through troubled times.

Trident jewels and clothing are inspired by passion for medieval, ancient, ethnic and tribal jewelry and costumes.Each design combines creativity with careful research of museum replicas, archaeological findings and study of their historical symbolism.
