Historical Background

Fibulae, also known as brooches or cloak pins, are among the oldest accessories of clothing fasteners. They were used to secure garments such as cloaks, tunics and capes before modern buttons and fasteners became common.

The penannular brooch has a ring with a small opening and a movable pin. This simple construction allowed gathered fabric to be pierced and secured against the ring.

Care & Maintenance

• Keep the brooch dry.
• Wipe away moisture after use.
• Store in a dry place.
• Apply a very light coat of suitable oil periodically to help reduce surface rust.
