In modern Sweden, as well as Norway, a trollkors or troll cross is a bent piece of iron worn as an amulet to ward off malevolent magic. Although commonly thought of as a part of Swedish folklore, it was first createdโ€”as an item of jewelryโ€”by the smith Kari Erlands from western Dalarna. It is said to haveย been copied fromย a protective rune found at her parents' farm, and it does bear some resemblance to the othala rune in the Elder Futhark.

We hope you like our box and that you might choose to store your trollkors in when youโ€™re not wearing it.ย
