Description
Penannular brooches were widely used from the Iron Age through the Viking and early Medieval eras. Their simple design made them popular—just pierce the fabric and twist the pin into place, with the ring’s tension holding everything securely.
Unlike old iron versions, these stainless steel brooches resist rust, tarnish, and marks, making them practical for long-term use in all seasons. Ideal for reenactors, LARP players, or anyone looking to add historical detail to their outfit.

Care Instructions:

Store loosely to avoid scratching the pin.
-
Avoid forcing through very thick fabrics to prevent bending.
