Medieval headscarf pin with a polyhedron head.
Here you can buy a medieval headscarf pin with a polyhedron head and circlet motif after an Anglo-Saxon find from England.
This medieval headscarf pin with polyhedron head was made true to detail after an Anglo-Saxon find from the 8th to 10th century AD and has a so-called circle eye motif as decoration.
Headscarf pins with polyhedron heads are very typical of Anglo-Saxon women's costume in the early Middle Ages and can be found in large numbers in the find material. They were used to fasten a headscarf or veil to the hair.
The historical model for this medieval headscarf pin comes from a find from Staffordshire and is now in the possession of the Birmingham Museums Trust.
The medieval headscarf pin is made of brass and, according to the historical find, is 6 cm long and 0.5 cm wide with a pin diameter of 1 mm.

Living History is making history come to life, and there are groups around the country that weekend in and weekend out (and some days in between) will set up a living history encampment, although at the moment my pages are focused generally upon the Migration, Saxon/Viking age, many of the items are transferable to other periods such as Roman and Crusade and earlier/later.
We hope this section can provide you with items to enhance your display, and if you're not a re-enactor, then also to enhance your home.
Please note that some wooden items may no longer be in stock throughout event season however please contact me to replicate anything you may see and like.
