These decorative beads are a beautiful mix of the earthy reds, browns and golds that that we see every year in autumn as the weather gets colder and the leaves fall from the trees to make way for the life that will become in the following year, embellished with beautiful gold beads with an option of Viking runes as well as spinning gold leaf charms and gold trees of life.
 
In History Viking beads were not only seen as forms of beautiful decoration but also as a way of showing off their wealth and even more interestingly a form of rudimentary currency, as metal was a more rare substance during the viking era it has been documented that when purchasing goods vikings may break off bits of metal from their beads and use them to pay for their purchase.
 
Expose glow in the dark beads to sunlight and you will reveal that in the dark they have a mystical green glow!
