Viking key Gotland, bronze

Product description

This key is a detailed replica of a find from the Swedish island of Gotland from the Viking Age.

Among the Vikings, a key was an essential part of women's dress and served as a status symbol: only the married woman had the power of keys in the house, and the key visibly worn on clothing showed her position within the household, especially when the master of the house was traveling.

An attractive accessory for those who want to portray the role of the Viking woman in the household, to be attached to clothing with a cord or belt of your choice.
