Mystical Norway Signet Ring - Small
Nomad Avenue uses standard European ring sizes.
If you do not know your European ring size we suggest the following approach to finding the correct size:
You already own a ring
Measure the inner diameter of your ring in mm and find the corresponding Nomad Avenue size in the chart below.
Measure it as accurately as possible as a small measurement error may lead to a wrong ring size.
If the measured size falls in between two sizes we suggest going with the larger size.
You DO NOT already own a ring
If you do not own a ring you can measure we suggest using the following approach.
Take a 5 mm wide paper band (cut from a standard A4 piece or similar).
Wrap it firmly around your finger and mark the place where the paper meets itself with a pen.
Measure the length of the piece of paper from the mark you made to the end in mm to get the circumference.
Find the corresponding Nomad Avenue ring size in the size chart below.
If the measured size falls in between two sizes we suggest going with the larger size.

The Story Behind the Design
In 1043, in Husaby (Southwest of Oslo), Hallvard Vebjørnsson became a local trader traveling for business.
One day, as he was preparing to row his boat across the Drammen Fjord, a young pregnant woman ran towards him while begging him to take her with him as she was being pursued by three men.
He accepted, in order to protect her, but the three men, unhappy about the situation, shot three arrows that struck Hallvard in the neck and killed him.
To hide the evidence, the men sank the pregnant woman and buried her on the shore, tossed Hallvard’s body into the water after tying a millstone around his neck.
Once found by worried friends, his body got properly buried near his home.
In the mid 14th century, the city os Oslo adopted Hallvard as its patron saint and devised a coat of arms depicting his murder.
The version presented on this manhole cover shows him sitting on a lion throne, holding the three lethal arrows in one hand and the millstone in the other while the nude woman he attempted to save is laying at his feet.
