VIKING PROTECTIVE BROOCH, 950-1050 AD
Detailed information on VIKING PROTECTIVE BROOCH, 950-1050 AD
Large example, just under 2” (1.4”) height of omega form. Oval top with large stepped base triangular terminals decorated in circles and stipple bands. When fastened to the jerkin, these small metal brooches provided a measure of protection against sword cuts and, in fact, were a form of armor. In addition to being more decorative, examples of this form provided added protection with the trailing tails. See current Public Television programming for documentation of these in action. As protectors, they also held spiritual significance for the warrior. The surface textured and degraded from age and burial. Professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold overlay restored and suspended from an 18” gilt Sterling silver neck chain. Gift boxed with certificate of authenticity.
