Trefoil replica from finds in Stora Ryk, Sweden. Typical of the Viking era. Handmade in bronze. The original is made with a granulation technique. As this is very expensive to make, this copy is cast in one piece.
The brooch measures 7 x 7 cm.
On the back you will find a large pin that is thick enough to hold even thick fabrics such as Vadmel. In the Viking era, women wore it to close the serge at the neck but also to hold thick woolen tops in place.
