Luxury corporate gifts make a great impression

The jewellery and metal work of the Anglo-Saxon and the Viking period was characterized not only by the well known twisting, traditional Celtic symbols, but also by imagery of strange animals, inscriptions, and the use of precious metals.
In 2009 Terry Herbert discovered a treasure now known as the staffordshire hoard. The hoard comprised 5 kilos of Anglo-Saxon gold and 2.5 kilos of silver. How the hoard came to be there will no doubt be the subject of much debate among historians, as there are several theories, one being that the treasure was hidden during one of the Viking’s infamous raids. Another suggests that the gold and silver items were the spoils of a battle, or of a long military career. The owners of the pieces were most likely to have been of Anglo-Saxon aristocracy.
This amazing find, thought to be the largest of its kind ever, has inspired jewellery makers to design pieces which echo the intricate designs found on the pieces discovered in the Staffordshire hoard. The pieces, cast in bronze, incorporate many of the features of these beautiful pieces and red crystal and cold enamel is used to replicate the dazzling effect of the garnet stones found in many of the pieces which were discovered in the Staffordshire hoard.
The invasion of the Vikings saw historical changes, but the design of metalwork and viking jewellery is not dissimilar in design to that of their predecessors, the Anglo-Saxons, as they still have many of the same features –the twisted metalwork, the intricate designs –the use of precious metals and symbols denoting martial objects of war or references to the gods.
