Aegishjalmur Bracelet
Aegishjalmur Bracelet
The galdrastafir were symbols believed to have a range of powers such as fertility, guidance through a storm, and protection in battle. Those effects would be different depending on their shape.
Pronounced “EYE-gis-hiowlm-er”, this rune was used to protect warriors and to instill fear in their enemies.
The name can be broken down into two parts: ‘ægis-’ meaning of terror/awe, and ‘-hjálmr’ meaning helm or covering.
In the Old Norse poem known as the Poetic Edda, by Snorri Sturluson, the Helm of Awe was a physical object taken from the dragon Fáfnir’s hoard. Fáfnir was once a dwarf, who turned into a dragon after becoming cursed by the treasure he guarded. He used Ægishjálmr to defend his treasure against those who would try to steal it. The hero known as Sigurd slew the dragon and took Ægishjálmr from him. The symbol was utilized in later centuries and was worn between the brows of warriors to assist them in battle.
This leather cuff bracelet is made of premium leather. The original design is carefully embossed on the piece, which has been subjected to a handmade aging process identical to those used in Hollywood movies so that the piece seems directly drawn from an epic fantasy story.
The size of the laced version ranges from 15 to 22 cm
If your size varies from these measures please contact us before buying.
The price is for a single bracer.

Custom Options
Some products can be customized—whether it’s a color change, a different finish, adding or removing elements, or adjusting for special sizes (very large or very small). If you'd like to personalize your item, you can leave a note in the checkout box or email us to discuss the details.
Customization depends on feasibility—some things are possible, others may not be, and pricing varies depending on the complexity of the changes. Small modifications may just require an additional charge, but if the requested changes are extensive, it may be considered a fully custom order, which means designing a new piece from scratch with separate pricing.
Once we’ve gone over the details and agreed on what’s possible and the cost, you’ll be able to pay for the customization separately and receive your item tailored to your request.
If you have something in mind, just ask! We’ll be happy to guide you through what’s possible and how to make it work in the best way.
