From the Viking Age, the Borre "ring braid" is a Scandinavian animal style celtic knot which is named after a boat grave in Borre, Norway. This band is 10mm wide and very sturdy. Crafted of nickel free sterling silver and marked 925.

Beautiful. Real sterling silver.
Beautiful. I was looking for a ring that resembled something a Viking would wear and this is it. It is definitely real sterling silver so don’t let the other reviews scare you away. I wear it basically 24/7 (I take it off to clean or cook). I ordered a size 5 which is what I typically wear. It fits, but sometimes it is very hard to remove. This isn’t the sizing being off, it’s the width of the band. If you find the size ring you normally wear to be snug, then order a size up for this one. In my opinion, it fits well. Due to its tightness, the design stays in place and it doesn’t rotate around my finger unless I’m cold. I recommend this ring to anyone who is into this style. I plan on ordering a backup just in case the silver on this one becomes scratched with age.

Nice, but deceived.
The first time around I received the wrong ring, they were happy to exchange it for me but, I ended up paying for shipping twice and waiting a lot longer than I expected before I finally had my order. I was expecting a thicker, heavier ring than what I got. They claim in the description that it's 2mm thick, this is false, it's about 1mm thick. What others are saying about sizing is true, it does run about a full size smaller. All in all, I do like it very much but, I also feel like I was deceived a bit. I'm really not one for complaining too much about my purchases, I usually do a bit of research before I order things but, I think this should've been a few dollars cheaper. *Edit* I stand corrected, it's a half size smaller, not a full size.

Beautiful mens ring
I bought this to replace my husbands gold wedding band with a large star ruby but a tiny worn down band. We both are highly allergic to nickel alloys and didn't want to break the bank, so decided sterling silver would be fine for him. I almost got one for myself I liked it so much. I did have to send it back and re-order 2 sizes larger than his actual ring size (which we had checked at a local jewelers).PROS: Budget priced, distinctive appearance, nickel freeCONS: Careful with the sizing - had to order 2 sizes larger than actualThoughts: Too bad it isn't available with a 50% wider band and in Titanium or some much stronger material.

Omg it is just crazy beutiful I love the design and I love how big and intricate ...
Omg it is just crazy beutiful I love the design and I love how big and intricate it is. It does run a touch small on the sizing I ordered a 7 for my middle finger and it feels more like a 6 and a half ago now I wear it on a different finger only because I didn't want to part with it and send it back I just love it never seen anything like it before. Would love to get the one with the garnet in the center but I'm not a fan of red garnet or marquis shape... You make that with a round stone and maybe blue topaz and I will be all over that!!! Hint hint😉😆

High Quality
The ring looks just like the picture & is just the right weight--not flimsy at all, but not too thick either. I lost my original wedding ring, an Artcarved 14 k gold band, which I liked a lot, but since I usually wear silver jewelry I didn't look for a gold ring as my replacement. Also, the braided wedding band style pays homage to my Viking/Irish heritage, but is suitable for anyone who simply likes the design and appreciates quality but isn't interested in spending a zillion bucks.

Buy a larger size.
I wear a size 6 after reading reviews I ordered a size 7. When it came, still too small so, have returned it for a size 8...Will see if 2 sizes larger will work!..Ring appears well made for the price.Will write an update when the new one comes.

Unique & lovely ring
Love this ring - very beautiful & so unique! I wear mine as a mid-finger ring. It fits perfectly! Remember because it is such a wide band you should order 'UP' one size. But it is a lovely ring & I have gotten a lot of compliments on it. The one down side is it did turn my finger green as well (as you have probably read in other reviews), but put a coat of clear polish on the inside - problem resolved. I hope this will help you in your choice!

Beautiful Design & Sturdy
This ring is beautiful and sturdy. I put on some weight and needed a new wedding band. This for the bill. The weave design is clear and distinct. It has a little weight to it. Very beautiful and well worth the price. I highly recommend this ring. It is slightly narrower in width on the back side. It has a definite front and back to the weave.
