About Us

Silver brooch - Shetland Islands map Shetland is a remote group of islands in the North Sea situated as far from Scotland as from Norway and the Faroe Islands.  The Shetland Islands are steeped in history - with Viking and Pictish settlements still being discovered and explored at present

 

RTVIKING is the internet trading name for our company Hjaltasteyn - which was established in 1968 in Whiteness, Shetland.   In 1990 the business was bought by local artist Rosalyn Thompson and her two daughters  Eloise and Sian and production was relocated to her studio in Weisdale.    With her artistic background, Rosalyn has expanded the business and now produces a stunning range of hand-finished gold and silver jewellery.     Each item is individually designed and finished by Rosalyn, who finds her inspiration for the designs in the rich island heritage resulting in jewellery which ranges from the traditional to stylish modern

 

Our family run business is dedicated to quality and service
