Bead Separators for Turtle Brooches from Gotland

Bead Separators for Turtle Brooches from Gotland

28.00 33.60 

Beautiful pair of separators, replica of the archaeological find from Stora Ire, near Hellvi, Gotland.
Although the style of these chain separators date them from the Vendel Period, they were a very common fitting used by women during the Viking Age too, in conjunction with the turtle brooches. These specifically were used to separate the different glass beads pendants, which were hanging from the turtle brooches, as you could observe at the attached image, property of the Historiska Museet from Stockholm.
These replicas are handmade of bronze.
Measures: 10 x 1 cm.
Price per pair.
