We obtain a static spherically symmetric wormhole solution due to the vacuum expectation value (vev) of a Kalb–Ramond field. The Kalb–Ramond (vev) is a background tensor field which produces a local Lorentz symmetry breaking (LSB) of spacetime. Considering a non-minimal coupling between the Kalb–Ramond (vev) and the Ricci tensor, we found an exact traversable wormhole solution sustained by matter sources with a negative isotropic pressure. The matter source satisfies the energy conditions at the throat for particular choices of the LSB parameter. Moreover, we employ the Gauss–Bonnet method to analyze the deflection angle of light in the weak limit approximation.
