Description
Viking strap end in Borre style for 1 cm width.
This slim Viking strap end in Borre style is based on a Viking Age find from Gotland / Sweden, dating to the 11th century.
Similar Viking strap ends in the Borre style have been found in Scandinavia as well as in Russia.
The Viking strap end fitting measures 3.8 x 1 cm.
You can buy the Viking strap end in high-quality bronze or in real silver-plated.
Fastening:
As documented by Viking examples, the strap end has two pins 8 mm long on the back.
These are best bent over slightly at the tip with round-nosed pliers and the Viking strap end is then simply tapped firmly with a hammer.
