Second is a petite ring with a face displaying a minimalist depiction of a swan, and with an extremely thin integral band. Last is a large ring, its round face showcasing an abstract depiction of a Viking longboat being bombarded with crashing waves from the sides. A wonderful and wearable selection of bronze Viking rings! Size of largest (longboat): 0.9" W (2.3 cm); US ring sizes: 8.0 (simple), 10 (longboat), and 10.75 (swan).
