Viking style open ring (penannular) brooch. This is a reproduction of a late 10th century artifact which was discovered as part of the Lille Karleby hoard. I've dulled the pin a bit to make more safe for modern wear, but otherwise have stuck to the original design. Penannular brooches feature a pin which rotates around a large ring, they open and close through a small break in the ring. They would have been used in antiquity to fasten kilts and cloaks.
