Roman & Celtic fibulae

Roman fibula and Celtic fibula or cloak pin

The Celts and Romans wore a fibula, also known as a cloak pin, to fasten garments. This was their version of the button and the zipper. For example, Romans fastened a toga on the shoulder with a fibula, and women pinned their stola. Until the Middle Ages, people fastened their cloak with a fibula. The fibula was often prominently visible. Poorer people wore an iron fibula, and the wealthier wore a fibula with enamel and stones. Our fibulae are based on Roman and Celtic finds.
