I'm working on a Late British Iron Age outfit for myself and t'other half, and while I have a good selection of fabrics and have found a few promising weaponry reproductions, I'm still looking for the right torc. I'm aiming for high status so looking for something fairly impressive, but also looking for some less showy ones to take into schools for living history days. Does anyone have any good links or know of some craftspeople who could help?

Try this chaps torq's, not too showy, but good.

If you Google "Crafty Celts," these artisans can supply you with a fairly good torc at a reasonable price, several styles made of bronze wire like the originals.
