Fancy Brooch with Dragon Head terminals

This Penannular brooch is hand forged from 1/8” square surgical stainless steel. We put each twist into the metal one at a time to make the pattern on the body of the brooch. It measures approximately 2 1/2” in diameter. The pin is 3/32” thick and 3” long. These are heavy duty enough to hold a wool cloak, but light enough to wear on a medium weight shawl. They also look great worn as a lapel pin.
Please note that these Brooches are hand forged so they will differ slightly from the photo. Each piece I make is unique in its own way.

The Penannular Brooch or semi-circular brooch is one of the most ancient ways of holding two pieces of fabric together. its origins date as far back as the Roman Empire. The Vikings and the Celts made this design famous.

Dragons and serpents
Jörmungandr also known as the Midgard Serpent was a sea serpant of Viking myth. He was the child of the god Loki and the giantess Angrboða. Legends sat that Odin tossed Jörmungandr into the great ocean that encircles Midgard (the Earth). The Dragon grew so large that he surrounded Midgard and bit his own tail. This is why the Deagon or Serpent symbolizes rebirth and the life cycle. In the Lrgends of the American Indians the Serpent represents rain, thunder, the river, and fertility. Asian Dragons symbolize wisdom and knowledge
