VIKING PROTECTIVE BROOCH, C.900-1050 AD

$140.00
Silvered bronze of broad, flat form, under 1” diameter. rounded face and flat back. The edge notched for the cross pin. 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. Professionally refurbished with the pure silver overlay restored and suspended from a Sterling silver neck chain. Gift boxed with certificate of authenticity.
