Discover the Viking Birka Coat Skadi, an excellent replication of a historical garment from the Viking era. Made from a high-quality wool blend, this coat offers both warmth and authentic historical elegance.

The front wooden buttons add a rustic and traditional touch to the coat. The plain cotton border that adorns the coat highlights its simplicity.

A special highlight is the elaborate hand embroidery in the original Urnes style, located at the neck area. The Urnes style, named after the Urnes Stave Church in Norway, was popular in the late Viking era (11th century). This embroidery gives the coat a distinctive identity and showcases the impressive craftsmanship of the Viking era.

The Viking Birka Coat Skadi is ideal not only for historical reenactments and LARP events but also for anyone looking for a unique garment with historical flair.

Due to the high-quality material composition and the delicate design, we recommend dry cleaning only to preserve the quality and appearance of the coat.

Leonardo Carbone, known for creating authentic but also imaginative Viking and medieval clothing and accessories, brings a piece of history into your wardrobe with the Viking Birka Coat Skadi.

Historical Background of the Birka Coat

The Birka coat originates from the Viking era and is named after the historical settlement of Birka in Sweden. Birka was an important trading place, and the garments found there show a high quality in textile production. The Vikings were known for their skills in textile processing and embroidery, often using natural materials such as wool and linen. Their clothing was functional but also decorative, indicating the high status of the wearer in society.

The Viking Birka Coat Skadi by Leonardo Carbone combines these historical elements with modern manufacturing methods to create a garment that is both authentic and comfortable. It is the perfect piece for those who want to combine historical accuracy with modern wearing comfort.
