The “Armour of War” is defined as the type of armour for
combat that afforded protection to the vital areas of the body, yet was
light weight and comfortable enough as not to tire a knight, nor constrict
his freedom of movement in battle. This incredible articulated wearable
suit of reproduction War Armour of Milanese design is made in Italy, the
renown hub for armour manufacturing during the middle ages. The steel has
been treated to create an antiqued "rust" finish that not only has a look
of authenticity but is historical. Armour used in battle was often
darkened so that it would not “shine” in light, as to keep a knight from
becoming a glistening target for the enemy. It also afforded protection
for the metal in wet battlefield conditions. This armour is is a true site
to behold, as it stands about 6-1/2 foot in height on its hardwood base. A
glorious armour for all historians and “warriors” at heart!
