Description
Gilt bronze, 7/8" diameter. Circular, of rounded section with radial triple bar clusters. Lightly worn and textured from burial. Worn in numbers on the surface of the jerkin, these small metal brooches provided a measure of protection against sword cuts and in fact, were a form of armor. See current Public Television programming for documentation of these in action. As protectors, they also held spiritual significance for the warrior. Professionally refurbished with the gold overlay restored. Gift boxed with certification of authenticity.
