Twin Dragons Leather Bracers with Celtic Motif

Symbolism and Craftsmanship

The centrepiece of these bracers is a precisely embossed pair of symmetrical dragons, with bodies intertwining in the style of Celtic knotwork. This design evokes the strength, wisdom, and mysticism of ancient legends. The leather is dyed using natural vegetable pigments, giving it a characteristic, vibrant appearance with subtle nuances in texture. Thanks to the adjustable lacing with strong leather cords, the bracers adapt perfectly to your forearm, ensuring comfortable wear throughout the day.

History and Fantasy Combined

Bracers, historically known as vambraces (from the French avant-bras, "forearm"), served primarily to protect the arms from cutting injuries in combat. Leather variants were particularly favoured by archers, protecting the inner forearm from the painful snap of the bowstring. Although the dragon motif is a fantasy element inspired by Norse and Celtic mythology, the construction of these bracers is based on functional historical precedents.

Leather Care Instructions

To ensure your bracers stay looking new for years, give them proper care:

• Cleaning: Remove dust and mud with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Never wash in a machine.
• Conditioning: Treat the leather occasionally with beeswax or leather balm. This keeps it supple and prevents cracking.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat sources (radiators), as this can permanently damage the leather.
