This is one of Sheila Fleets most iconic and classic designs. The Runic necklace features runic text in polished silver, set within a hand-enamelled background of ‘Skaill’ enamel, and reads Reflecting times past and present. The circular design is approximately 37mm in diameter and hangs elegantly from a silver wire.

Sheilas iconic Runic collection was inspired by inscriptions found inside Maeshowe, a Neolithic chambered cairn in Orkney, built around 2800 BC. Sometime around the 12th century, Vikings broke into the tomb and carved runes on the wallstheir version of modern-day graffiti. Over thirty inscriptions have survived and represent the largest single collection of such carvings in the world.
