Description

Viking Birka Coat, black with Urnes embroidery – "Skadi"

The Skadi is an ankle-length Viking cloak based on archaeological textile finds from Birka, Sweden. Birka was one of Scandinavia’s most important trading centres in the 8th to 10th centuries – and the textile fragments found there attest to a keen appreciation for high-quality garments. This coat draws on this tradition and translates it into a wearable, richly detailed garment for re-enactment, Viking LARP and medieval markets.

The outer fabric, a wool blend, provides natural warmth and an authentic drape. The coat fastens at the front with wooden toggle buttons – a fastening that is well-documented historically and gives the garment its rustic, authentic character. Particular attention has been paid to the Urnes-style hand embroidery around the neckline: the flowing, interwoven animal motifs of this artistic style are typical of the late Viking Age and lend the cloak a distinctive visual quality. The slightly flared hem allows for freedom of movement and ensures comfort during long market days or events.

The Skadi is designed for performers who value historical authenticity without compromising on comfort. It is suitable as an over-garment for Viking attire as well as a standalone top in cooler weather. The black colour is timeless and can be combined with a wide variety of undergarments and accessories.
