Welcome to the homepage of Pagan Silver
PLEASE NOTE :- We are in the process of closing down our retail business and this site will be changing to an information resource which details and demonstrates the methods and materials used by our ancestors to produce items of jewellery.
We will also detail how more modern methods can be used as quite frankly, some of the old techniques can be quite hazardous.
Consequently, there is ZERO stock for sale on this website and in the event you discover an active link for sales somewhere which allows you to place an order, your payment will be refunded as soon as we become aware of it.
Anyway, we make items of jewellery and vertu based on Iron Age, Bronze Age and Dark Age pieces and many other items featuring Pagan Gods, beliefs and mythology.
We also make more mainstream items of jewellery using ancient techniques to demonstrate the versatility and practicality of these techniques.
We make many specialised chains including Viking Weave and true Chain Maille types in Byzantine, Persian, Box and Medieval Foxtail as well as ancient 'Loop in Loop chains'.
The picture below shows a small selection of our work, all of which is made by hand. As we develop the site, more pictures and videos will be added.
A small selection of our handmade silver, precious metal and gemstone jewellery.
Our items are made by hand using methods as close as we can to those used by ancient Silversmiths to ( safely ) produce items as ' one off pieces ' or low production runs.
We work in Solid Sterling Silver (.925), Solid Fine Silver (.999) as well as Gold by arrangement. All gemstones used by us are genuine. Many of our items are based on original and ancient pieces on display in museums across the Globe.
We can also make exact replicas of ancient artefacts such as the 10th Century Thor's Hammer or the Late Bronze Age / Early Iron Age Ribbon Torc shown below.
At times, we use the influence of the designs of Jonas Lau Markussen to produce items in the various ancient styles of Oseberg, Borre, Jellinge, Mammen, Ringerike and Urnes.
We sometimes produce a small range of Christian influenced items to reflect historic crossover periods usually with a heavy Celtic or part integrated appearance.
Please click on the various buttons and links or the menu on mobile versions to find out more about us.
All items made by Pagan Silver will be fully hallmarked by Goldsmith's Hall, London Assay unless they are exempt in which case we mark them ourselves with the appropriate fineness e.g. .925, .999.
