Peter Reynaers

Viking Bronze Torque
Circa 11th century AD
This robust bronze torque is formed from a single round-section bar bent into an open neck ring. The front arc is decorated with tight ribs and fine notches, while the sides remain plain. Each terminal turns back into a small recurved hook, leaving a narrow gap between.
A torque is a neck ring. It sat at the base of the neck with the opening to the front, and was a visible sign of rank.
Dimensions: 14cm x 16cm x 0,5cm
Provenance: Private European Collection; formerly acquired from old UK and European collection formed since the 1970s.
