Both Viking men and women enjoyed wearing jewellery as an indicator of wealth and social status. Indeed, pieces were fashioned from a range of materials spanning bone to gold, with decoration influenced by the cultures that the Vikings had encountered on expeditions. Appliques of this type, were used in Viking society to decorate dresses and garments, and were modelled using different techniques.
