Product description

This fibula is a replica of a 1st-century Roman original excavated in South England. It is now part of the collection of the British Museum in London. The Romans wore it — presumably Roman legionaries from Gaul — and it is clearly made in the Celtic La Tène art style. Similar originals have been found in Gaul, where the Gauls wore them before the Romans later adopted the style. Shaped like a stylized seahorse, its forms appear frequently in Celtic earthenware and engravings from the Middle La Tène period.
