Hand forged garment clasp from the Viking Age.
This simple Viking garment clasp, which you can buy here, is also called a horseshoe brooch or ring brooch because of its shape and captivates with its beautifully rolled ends.The forged Viking ring brooch is artfully forged from a smooth round bar 5 mm thick with elegantly curled ends and has a beautiful matt black surface.
Diameter of the garment clasp: 6 cm, needle 8 cm.
The needle of the ring brooch is elegantly curved and thus fits the layers of fabric well without sticking out, making the Viking garment clasp ideal for closing a light to medium-weight cloak.
The horseshoe brooch is a thousand-year-old garment clasp with a practical use. Especially in the Viking Age between 790 and 1060 AD, this type of brooch was very common and was used to easily close the garment.
The pin of the Viking ring brooch is simply pushed through the fabric of the coat on the right shoulder and then locked with the round part so that the brooch cannot come loose.
