Medieval Braided Silver Torc Necklace

Handmade Silver Torc Necklace

This medieval style silver torc necklace is a unique piece of handcrafted jewellery. The torc is made from uncoated silver wire, which is cut, braided, twisted, and styled using only hand tools. The result is a rigid yet pliable neck ring that can be shaped and adjusted using pliers if necessary. To prevent excess scuffs and scrapes, it is recommended to cover the silver with leather when using pliers.

The torc is coated with a water-resistant finish to protect it from rusting. However, if the necklace has been in contact with water or high humidity, some rusting may occur over time. In this case, it is advised to use a rough cloth or fine sanding paper to remove the rust, and then apply a wax, oil, or water-resistant solution to coat it again and protect it from further rusting.

As the silver is uncoated, it may develop a tarnish over time which can discolor the skin. This is a natural effect of the metal and can be easily cleaned. The torc measures 6.25 inches in diameter and has a thickness of 5.62 mm, making it comfortable to wear around the neck.

This torc is not only a beautiful piece of jewellery but also holds significance in ceremonies and rituals, particularly in Viking culture. It has been used to bless Viking marriages, births, and funerals.
