Questions about the product Celtic bronze torque - corded neck ring

Wird geladen...

This Celtic torque is made of bronze. Such a neck ornament is typical of the Iron Age, especially the early to middle La Tène period (approx. 5th to 1st century BC).
What symbolic meaning did the torque have in Celtic society and how was it worn in comparison to the Roman military?

In Celtic society, the torque was a symbol of high status, power, and religious devotion, often worn by nobles and deities. While the Celts wore the neck ring directly around their necks as a sign of prestige and freedom, it was adopted in the Roman military as a badge of gallantry (torques armillatus), but usually attached in pairs to a breastplate (phalerae) and not worn around the neck.
Were Celtic torques worn by both men and women, and how does the fit of the neck jewelry differ from an ordinary necklace?

Celtic torques were worn by both men and women in ancient times and often served as status symbols for high-ranking individuals or warriors. Unlike a typical necklace, which usually consists of flexible links and hangs loosely, a torque is a rigid, ring-shaped neck ornament. It fits snugly around the neck and retains its shape, typically featuring an opening at the front adorned with decorative finials.
What artisanal techniques were used in the production of this bronze torque, and what is the best way to care for the material to maintain its shine?

The bronze torques were crafted by traditional handwork using the twisting and twisting of metal rods. For optimal care, contact with chemicals such as perfume or hairspray should be avoided, and the material should always be stored dry. To maintain its shine, regular cleaning with a soft cloth or the application of a natural paste made from vinegar and salt for gentle polishing is recommended.
