Viking tweezers after a find from Birka.
This replica of a tweezer from the Viking Age was manufactured in great detail after a find from the Viking town of Birka in Sweden and is dated to the 8th or 9th century.
The Viking tweezers have the following dimensions: 8 x 1.5 cm with ring. Without ring 7 cm.
The tweezers are made of high-quality bronze and are also available in genuine silver-plated.
In the Viking Age, tweezers were, in addition to nail cleaners and ear spoons, often part of the toilet cutlery of women's dress and are therefore found in various forms in the settlement areas of the Vikings.
A black leather strap in 2 m length is enclosed with the Viking tweezers.
Tweezers made of bronze have been used since the Bronze Age. Our ancestors used them for personal hygiene. With the Egyptians and Romans they were even part of the medical instruments and so tweezers were still indispensable for hygiene and beauty care and an elementary part of women's dress. The Vikings often wore the tweezers together with other toilet accessories on a long chain or a leather band on the bowl fibulae, where they could reach down to hip level and were thus always at hand.
