Replica of a Viking trefoil brooch from Upland.
Here you can buy a detailed replica of a Viking trefoil brooch, modelled on a Viking brooch from Upland / Norway, dating to the late 9th century.
Link to the historical model...
This Viking trefoil brooch is a
vivid example of the design transition between the Borre and Jelling styles at the transition from the 9th to the 10th century.
The Viking trefoil brooch
measures 5 x 5 cm.
You can buy this Norwegian trefoil brooch in high-quality
bronze and in genuine
silver-plated.
On the back of the Viking trefoil brooch is a
sturdy needle so that it is also suitable for fastening stronger fabrics.
As a component of Frankish
military harnesses, trefoil shaped strap distributors also came to Scandinavia and were made into jewellery there. As a typical part of Viking women's costumes, trefoil brooches were soon also made in Scandinavian style.
Such brooches were used without exception in
women's costumes, where the trefoil brooch was usually worn in the middle of the chest between the bowl brooches. But in the middle of the 10th century, the trefoil brooch disappeared again from Scandinavian costume.
