Era Viking Tweezer (Sem preço de reserva)
These authentic medieval bronze tweezers are made from a single folded strip of bronze, forming a functional spring mechanism. The exterior is decorated with a repeating series of diamond-shaped punch marks, a geometric motif strongly associated with Viking and Norse decorative traditions.
Such diamond or lozenge punch patterns are commonly seen on Viking-age metalwork, including personal items, tools, and fittings, and are characteristic of early medieval Scandinavian and Norse-influenced craftsmanship.
Tweezers were an essential part of Viking and medieval personal grooming, often carried on the belt or as part of a grooming set. Decorated examples like this are especially desirable, as they reflect both practical use and aesthetic attention.
The surface shows a natural, undisturbed patina with wear consistent with age and long use. The decoration remains clearly visible, enhancing both historical and visual appeal.
A fine example of a medieval personal grooming tool in Viking style, well suited for collectors of Viking-age or early medieval artifacts.
