Why this Set?

This is our new flagship collection, consolidating and expanding three earlier sets (Viking Ornaments, Germanic Ornaments, and Nordic Designs) into one complete, evergreen resource. Instead of several smaller packs, you now get everything in one place — with more material than ever before.

This set captures the living spirit of Viking art. Where artifact-based collections provide accuracy and reference, these designs give you creative freedom: modern reinterpretations that stay faithful to historical styles while offering clean, flexible artwork for today’s creators.

For tattooers and illustrators, it means ready-to-use motifs with authentic character. For designers and branding projects, it’s a way to channel Nordic visual identity without worrying about copyright or low-quality reproductions. For hobbyists, crafters, and enthusiasts, it’s a hands-on gateway to the Viking Age — ornamentation you can weave into personal projects while still feeling historically grounded.

This set isn’t just a toolbox of patterns — it’s a chance to carry Viking artistry forward into new contexts, keeping the tradition alive through contemporary creativity.
