The \u00c5land-based goldsmith Maria Karlstr\u00f6m designed a pendant specially for Viking Glory to commemorate the vessel\u2019s christening. As is the tradition, the first person to wear the hand-forged gold jewellery, which depicts the sea surf and a lighthouse, was the vessel\u2019s godmother, Isabel Lennse. A version of the Glory pendant made in silver is available for sale on board the new vessel. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The christening of the vessel harks back to an earlier tradition: the godmother of a new vessel is given a piece of jewellery as a souvenir by the shipping company and the shipyard. Viking Line gave the Swede Isabel Lennse<\/strong>, who christened Viking Glory, a Glory pendant made of gold, with its unique design evoking seafaring and the Baltic Sea archipelagos. A version of the pendant given to Viking Glory\u2019s godmother which is made of recycled sterling silver can be purchased on board the vessel.<\/p>\n

The Glory pendant was crafted by hand in Viking Glory\u2019s home port of Mariehamn in the \u00c5land Islands. The maritime quarter is a popular area for artisans and is also where the goldsmith Maria Karlstr\u00f6m<\/strong> has her Guldviva studio. Karlstr\u00f6m likewise designed the pendant in white gold that was presented to Viking Grace\u2019s godmother in 2013.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor Viking Glory, I wanted to create a piece of jewellery that reflects the sea in a timeless, refined way. The Glory pendant is a combination of traditional goldsmithing and modern design. The godmother pendant\u2019s rose gold frame depicts a rope, symbolizing maritime travel. Within the frame, you see white foamy waves in white gold. A brilliant diamond sparkles on the crest of the waves. When light hits the stone, it calls to mind a lighthouse appearing on the horizon, a sight through the ages that has assured seafarers that they are almost home, safe in port,\u201d Maria Karlstr\u00f6m explains.<\/p>\n

Environmental values were a priority in the making of Glory\u2019s godmother pendant. The chain and the pendant itself are made from recycled 18-karat rose and white gold from \u00c5land. The brilliant diamond was cut from an environmentally certified Arctic 0.12-karat ECOnatural diamond from the Swedish diamond house Diamanter Edwardson.<\/p>\n
