Product description
This humorous pin draws inspiration from a secular medieval badge, featuring a crude-erotic depiction common in the late Middle Ages and intended for general amusement. The design shows a male figure peering through his own legs, presenting his fully exposed buttocks, with his erect member clearly visible. Such playful, bold images were typical of medieval entertainment.The historical model for this badge was made from pewter and originated in the Netherlands, dating from 1325 to 1375 AD. Made from high-quality silver-plated bronze, the replica features a pin on the back so you can attach it to clothing or a headdress, just like in medieval times. The badge measures 3 x 3.5 cm.
These crude-erotic badges represent a subgroup of secular medieval badges, alongside other motifs like copulating couples, phallic trees, or anthropomorphized genitalia — including phallic animals or winged vulvas. Their most likely purpose was to address sexuality through humor, using them as joking love tokens or playful conversation starters about sex.
