those are pretty cool!

“Historical records show that the landowner turned the hoard over to the National Museum of Denmark and was paid 295 Danish krone — worth about $4,000 USD today.”

I would be happy to give the museum $10,000 USD today, maybe $15,000 if they said pretty please.

As a ‘Fiber Arts Maker’ (I Crochet; that just sounds FANCY) I am trying my hardest to make wearing one of your Grandma’s Brooches with your Winter Scarf a ‘thing.’

Hoping to be the next Coco Chanel or Givenchy. Wish me luck! ;)
