Viking age metal braiding
I've always been attracted to unusual, understudied topics. I learned about posament work before much information was available and taught myself how to do some of the basic knots from observation. Once more information became readily available, I was hooked and started seriously studying the construction and application of metal work from Birka. Many hours of study, countless hours of experimentation, and a couple trips to Stockholm later, I am here to share my knowledge and supplies with you! See more information at www.posaments.com!
Because I have wide-ranging interests, this shop will also occasionally include other non-metalwork items and I am open to custom commissions, including pre-made posaments, so if you do not see what you would like, please just reach out!

As of August 2026, I am not shipping tenntråd and kits to the EU because of shipping restrictions. I will still send the instruction booklets and if you PM, I will tell you where to order materials within the EU. This is a hobby business for me, I don’t make money on this so I don’t mind sharing sources to help people learn the craft!
