Product description
This high quality luxury Viking bag is an exact replica of a find from Rösta, Jämtland, Sweden (10th century AD). The brass bag fitting is made exactly after the originals. These types of bags are often called Birka bags, because a large number have been found in the Swedish Viking town of Birka. Birka was an important trade center in the Viking age. The origin of this bag probably lies with the Magyars, a people of the steppe (nowadays the Hungarians). The theory is that the bags were brought by traders from the steppes to Scandinavia in the eighth and tenth centuries.

Maintenance & care
Just as with weaponry, you can care for your shoes and leatherware by applying a little Ballistol after cleaning. This prevents the leather from drying out.
