Gothic
styling is one of the finest examples of armor design in
history.
The curves and fluting of this armor were originally created
by the artistic German Armorers of the late 15th century. This
design added both strength and beauty.
This armor breastplate is made of hand-forged 16 gauge
carbon steel. This metallurgical composition provides excellent
resilience, durability and will polish to a high sheen.
The straps are made of sturdy Pure Buffalo Horn Leather. This leather is
stronger than traditional leather and "pleather".
The buckles are 18 gauge steel and adjustable for a comfortable fit. The
entire strap is riveted to the plate metal of the breastplate. This is a
solid piece of gothic armor that won't come apart while you're wearing
it.
This item is shipped to you pre-oiled for protection.
Specifications:
- This Gothic Armor Breastplate weighs over 9 pounds.

Due to the handmade nature of this item, no two examples are alike. It's
truly a unique, collectible piece.
You must be 18 years of age or older to
purchase this Gothic Armor Breastplate.
