Viking Compass  - Vegvisir - Embroidered Book Sleeve

The Vegvísir, often called the “Viking Compass” or “Runic Compass,” is a powerful symbol from Icelandic magical tradition. Its name literally means “wayfinder” or “signpost” in Old Norse. 

Guidance and Direction: The Vegvísir was believed to help its bearer find their way through rough weather or difficult journeys, both physically and metaphorically. It’s a symbol of navigation through life’s uncertainties.

Handmade using luxury upholstery-quality linen-effect fabric, this padded book sleeve offers durability, structure, and a premium feel. It is fully lined for added protection and features a front slip pocket—perfect for bookmarks, notes, reading glasses, or small essentials.

An elastic and button closure keeps your book secure while travelling, and a side loop allows you to attach charms, keyrings, or talismans to personalise your sleeve with your own magic.
