Anglo-Saxon clothes hook – replica.
\nThis beautiful replica shows an early medieval hook closure for the garment after a 6th century burial find from the Anglo-Saxon settlement of Eriswell in Suffolk.<\/p>\n
Such hooks of wire coiled in a spiral shape were widespread among the Anglo-Saxons during the early Middle Ages and were used instead of buttons to close the armholes of women’s clothing.<\/p>\n
The beautifully designed Anglo-Saxon hook closure is made of brass.
\nSize: 3 x 3 cm<\/p>\n
The medieval coat hook is very easy to attach – sew it onto the mantle with a few stitches through the openings in the spiral wraps.<\/p>\n
This replica of an Anglo-Saxon spiral coat hook is a really practical clasp for historical clothing in the Larp and Middle Ages.<\/p>\n
The model for this medieval robe hook is a find from tomb 33 in the Anglo-Saxon settlement of Eriswell \/ Suffolk, which dates back to the 6th century.
