Inspired by an archaeological find of a clover fibula in Smolensk, this brooch represents a fusion of Carolingian tradition with Viking aesthetics. The original is in the Moscow Historical Museum, and now you can have your own replica.

This fibula, typical of the Viking Age, measures 4.5 x 4.5 cm and is available in two versions: high quality bronze finish and silver finish bronze. Its design, characteristic of the Borre style, includes symmetrical motifs and braided ribbon ornamentation, highlighting the artistic skill and aesthetic taste of the Scandinavian craftsmen of the time.

The brooch features a sturdy needle on the back, making it ideal for attaching thick fabrics such as capes, ensuring both functionality and style. Traditionally, Viking women wore these fibulae in the center of the chest, often combined with two shield or tortoise fibulae at the sides, or to close a light cloak.

The clover fibula in Borre style is not only a decorative accessory, but also a reflection of the rich Viking cultural heritage. The Borre style, dating between 835 and 970 AD, is known for its symmetrical motifs, highlighting the use of circles and squares, and fantastical creatures linked with geometric designs. This style, named for the discovery on the west coast of the Oslo Fjord in Vestfold, Norway, was especially popular in eastern Scandinavia.

This brooch is a perfect addition for any Viking history enthusiast or for those looking for a distinctive touch to their historical outfits. In addition to its practical function, it adds a decorative element that enhances the authenticity of any clothing.
