A Viking Wife & Company is your source for handmade items straight out of the viking age. Each piece is handmade, often using the same techniques employed by the ancient norse. Every item in our store is made custom when you order, that is the main reason for the lengthy shipping time. We also do local festivals, and during what we affectionately refer to as "Faire Season," all online orders are suspended. This allows us to build stock for those events, and gives you the opportunity to see our quality for yourself.
