Leather bracelet “Circular Knotwork”

Description of the Product

Celtic knotwork art traces back to 6th-century manuscripts, and it is known to signify eternity with its intertwining loops. Norse people developed their own version of knotwork between the 8th-11th centuries. The so-called Viking knotwork was common in ornaments adorning daily items and ships. Despite distinct origins, both styles share similarities, reflecting the artistic skills and vision of their cultures.

Leather bracelets and wristbands have a surprisingly long history, originating from ancient civilizations like Egypt and Rome. Bracelets were used for multiple purposes, such as spiritual protection and symbolizing wealth or marriage. During medieval times, leather bracelets were seen as old fashioned, but they regained popularity during the Victorian era. In the 20th century, leather bracelets took on new significance in counterculture movements, often symbolizing rebellion and different ideologies.
