A-2 GERMAN FULL SUIT OF ARMOUR.
Circa 1560-1590. Early Burgonet of typical form with a one piece skull,
raised comb with very nice large rivets and original hinged cheek
pieces. The visor of the helmet is clearly stamped with the
Nuremberg
mark as well as the armourers mark. Fine form gorget, the heavy front
and lighter back plate has roped
and rolled borders. Flared skirt with seven plate tassets, the tassets
have high rounded rivets which match the helmet. The tassets also have
rolled and roped borders. Full arms with three plate Pauldrons also with
rolled and roped borders, note the left Pauldron is decorated with an
ogee scroll. The gauntlets also have rolled and roped borders. The leg
pieces with flared cuisse and articulated knee cops, the lower plate
with key locks to the greaves to allow it to be worn as a ¾ suit or
full suit of armour The greaves and sabatons with a series of
articulated plates above the ankle and across the feet have key lock
fastners. This is a
composite suit of armour all parts are from the 1560 to 1590 period with
the exception of the fingers of the gauntlets and the leg pieces which
are very early Victorian copies. These suits were assembled during the
early to mid Victorian era to re-decorate castles and large estates back
to their former grandieur. Overall this piece is very impressive and
very solid. $SOLD
