This elaborate and wonderfully detailed replica of a late medieval suit of armour is made from 1.2mm (18 gauge) steel and consists of a cuirass, back armour and two leg pockets.



While the breast piece is fitted with triple-sliding belly hoops (or faulds ) to protect the hips, waist, groin and abdomen, the handsome back piece is decorated with a wide, flared culet . i>complete, consisting of two wavy plates, also situated one above the other, and protecting the buttocks. Both the belly hoops and the culet are articulated by means of steel rivets. Both the obverse and reverse display the striations, filigree cutouts and multi-layered design that were typical of late medieval Gothic plate armour (15th and 16th centuries). The inside of the armour is blackened for better protection against corrosion.



In this upper body cuirass, the two halves are joined together by means of 3mm thick, adjustable leather straps with steel buckles. This means that it can be adjusted to fit a variety of sizes. The straps and buckles are firmly riveted at shoulder height and on the sides of the breastplate and back. The two leg pockets (also called tassets ), which protect the thighs, can also be fixed to the lower belly band with sturdy, adjustable leather straps and buckles.
