Bronze Gallo-Roman Triquetra Brooch - Bronze Historical Reproduction Pin

Handmade Solid Bronze with polished finish and clip back pin.

This Gallo-Roman fibula was made after a find from southern France dating to the 1st to 2nd century AD. The original piece was sold through Christie's Auction House in the 1980s and is now in a private collection.

The fibula was modelled on a Gallo-Roman bridle fitting in the trumpet motif typical of the period, with three curled tendrils facing each other in the shape of a triskele.

The triskele motif was frequently used in Celtic art and can be found on jewellery and fittings as well as on stone carvings, wallpapers and many other objects of daily life.

This replica brooch is handmade in high-quality bronze.

Dimensions: 1 1/4" x 1 1/4" in size. Clip back pin is soldered to the focal piece, NOT glued to assure sturdy construction.

This brooch is an exact historical replica of the original piece! A beautiful authentic work of art for the person that appreciates history.
