  • Glass Beads of the Viking Age
    Glass Beads of the Viking Age HL Renart (the fox) of Berwick What are Glass Beads? Glass beads are small pieces of glass that have been melted and molded inside a heated oven (forge) or over the very hot coals of a fire, and then wound or spun on a thin rod and possibly decorated (Ill. 1). Others small decorative items similar to glass beads are pieces of amber or jet that were carved into beads, gaming pieces, or other jewelry items. Illustration 1: Glass beads (Dahlquist and Illustration 2: Glass Gaming Pieces (Levick and Martensson undated) Beadle 1992) Who Made the Beads? Glass bead-makers were artisans who imported glass from Western Europe to support their craft. The beads were used as jewelry for the townsfolk and for trade items across the lands. The artisans lived amongst the Viking people, and followed in their footsteps as they moved from area to area. Therefore, Viking glass beads were made in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Greenland, England, Gotland, Scotland, Ireland, etc. Other cultures worked in and made glass, and there are glass beads from prehistoric sites, Celtic sites and Roman sites. However, this paper is concentrating upon beads made during the Viking or Norse era. When? The Vikings made glass beads from the 8th -11th centuries. As mentioned above, glass beads 1 were made prior to the Viking era by other cultures, and, of course, they were made after the Viking era and are still made today. Who Wore the Beads? Mostly the women of the time, at least in the Viking culture.
