Historical Significance

Trefoil brooches were a popular element of Viking attire, particularly in the 10th century. They were often worn alongside oval (tortoise) brooches and other pins, but they were also sometimes worn alone as the main decorative accent, reflecting Carolingian influences and enjoying great popularity among women in Scandinavia.
