Brooches, Pendants & Lockets
The modern “brooch” came from twists of metal called fibula which fastened clothing, and their use spread as the Germanic tribes scattered at the end of the Roman Empire. The first pendants and lockets were also practical; they carried herbs believed to protect the wearer from the Black Death. Sentimental lockets became especially popular at the time of miniature portraiture.
