Birka Viking Cloak “Skadi” Dove Blue
The “Skadi” Birka cloak in dove blue references rare woad-dyed textiles associated with the free-born upper-middle classes of the Norse world, handcrafted for historical reenactment, festivals, and cosplay. Its Scandinavian clasp and mid-leg length are faithful to the Birka archaeological tradition. A photogenic, high-status option for völva and saga character portrayals.

A garment that honors historical codes, far from cheap costume-store fare.
The art of costume
“Skaði” in dove blue: a rare tone in the Viking wardrobe, achieved through woad baths (Isatis tinctoria) mixed with salt. It was a marker of the free-born northern class that had access to pigments cultivated in Frisia.
Dove-blue version of the Birka cloak, fastened with a Scandinavian clasp, mid-leg length. The dove blue has a diaphanous quality that is particularly photogenic outdoors.
Worn by those portraying free-born women of middle-to-high rank in the Norse world, ceremonial völva (Norse shamans), and Icelandic saga characters. Pairs with a light tunic and amber beads.
Available colors: Black, Sand, Dove Blue, Olive, Red
Available sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL
