9th Century Viking Age Leather Belt with Brass Buckle, 2 cm
Quality You Can See and Feel
The belt is made from premium full-grain leather, which is not only durable but also develops a beautiful patina over time. It is available in two striking colours – royal blue and crimson red. The strong, contrasting white stitching near the buckle not only looks great but also ensures the buckle is held securely in place. At 2 cm (approx. 0.7 in) wide, this belt is ideal for sliding through the loops of historical trousers or as an elegant belt over a men's or women's tunic.
The Heart of the Belt: The Zoomorphic Buckle
The clear focal point is the solid brass buckle. It is made using the traditional sand-casting technique, which means that every piece is unique in its fine details. The serpent or dragon head motif is typical of Viking art and the early medieval period, where animal motifs held deep symbolic and protective meanings. It wasn't just a fastener, but also a piece of jewellery and a status symbol.
Choosing the Right Size
This belt is designed to be worn in the traditional long fashion, with the end of the belt hanging down. Therefore, the belts are longer than your actual waist circumference. Carefully measure your waist (at the point where you will wear the belt) and choose your size from our chart.

Caring for Your Belt
To ensure this fantastic belt serves you for as long as possible and looks great:
- Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally hung up or loosely coiled.
- Periodically treat the leather with a leather conditioner or balm to keep it supple.
- You can gently polish the brass buckle if tarnish appears (or, if you don't mind the patina, leave it for a more authentic look).
- Avoid soaking the leather completely in water.
Please Note: As this is a hand-crafted item using natural materials, slight variations in the leather tone or brass texture may be present, which makes every piece unique.
