The medieval lovers charm measures 2.5 x 2.2 cm and thus almost corresponds to the original size.
A black leather strap in 1 m length is included with the medieval charm.
The medieval badges with the inscription Amours, unlike the crude erotic wearing signs of the same epoch, are a serious version of love, which was designed with love signs such as crowned hearts, with chaste busts, with flowers and the like, i.e. varieties of courtly love, which were also adopted by lower social classes in the late Middle Ages and depicted in a generally understandable iconography.
