Description

Viking chain distributor bronze "Öland", 1 piece

During the Viking Age, approximately between 700 and 1000 AD, oval brooches with chain distributors were an integral part of many women's wardrobes in Sweden and the Baltic States. As a result of this fashion phenomenon, these items are often found in excavations of women's graves. Wearing several necklaces at the same time between two oval brooches, connected either with large distribution plates or thin bar chain distributors, was probably widespread in eastern Sweden and other bordering areas such as Finland and the Baltic States. This type was very typical there and was provided with eyelets on the back, unlike the traditional holes today.

This Viking chain spreader bronze is made after a historical bead spreader from the Swedish island of Öland. On the bottom there are three holes for attaching chains or chain hooks (S-.hook).
