These Baltic brooches and dividers are replicas of a grave finding from Livonia. They were my second set of tortoise brooches, and I’ve used them so much since I bought them 8 years ago… A large number of very similar findings have been made in the same area, where such dividers were commonly used to wear (and show off) multiple glass bead chains, amulets, pendants, and household items such as keys, combs, needle boxes or knives. 💎🗝✨ These days I am planning a whole new outfit, and on the lookout for a new and different set of brooches! I’m focusing on Scandinavian findings this time, namely the areas in Norway and Sweden where the majority of my other items are from... 🧵💙 #turtlebrooches #tortoisebrooches #viking #vikings #vikingclothing #norse #vikingwoman #vikinglife #vikingblog #valkyrie #valkyrja https://www.instagram.com/p/CMIRc2QHN0r/?igshid=w837r1msvli7
