This brass Rus Viking brooch measures 3 x 3 cm. The original artifact on which it is based comes from the Kievan Rus region and is dated to the 10th or 11th century.
What material is the original Rus Viking fibula from Goldsborough made of, and what is the significance of the find site for archaeology?

The original Rus Viking fibula from the Goldsborough hoard is made of silver. The site is of great archaeological importance, as the Goldsborough hoard is one of the largest Viking treasure finds in England and, through the Islamic dirhams and Anglo-Saxon coins it contains, attests to far-reaching trade relations in the early 10th century.
What symbolic meaning did the decorations on Viking brooches of Kievan Rus have, and in what social contexts were such magnificent garment clasps usually worn?

The decorations on Kievan Rus' Viking brooches, often in the Borre or Urnes style, served as symbols of status, wealth, and cultural identity, a blend of Scandinavian influences and Slavic traditions. Such magnificent garment clasps were typically worn in high-society contexts to fasten cloaks or caftans, while simultaneously displaying rank and membership in the elite or warrior class.
