Viking age women's jewelry set
During the viking age in Scandinavia, women often wore elaborate sets of oval brooches with strings of beads and associated jewelry pieces depended from them as a status symbol. This is my interpretation of one such set. Bronze, Antler and Glass.
The jewel of my collection!
