On the back, the Viking disc brooch has a sturdy needle, which is used to fasten the brooch to the garment, preferably to close the shirt neckline.
The Borre Style represents the second phase of the so-called Nordic gripping beast style and was particularly popular in eastern Scandinavia. It is characterized in particular by mirror-symmetrical motifs, such as circles and squares, which are often expressed in braided ribbon ornamentation. Here, various mythical animals are often connected to the geometric knotwork, characterized by a shape reminiscent of mice or cats.
