a full suit of antique armour with fully articulated joints mounted on wooden frame & base stand.

ANTIQUE SUIT OF ARMOUR CONSIDERED TO BE around 1920-30 in age,and in good order throughout, with excellent attention to detail.

The finish is unspoilt and has no pitting or damage.The sword is a later copy and did not belong to the suit.The surface has a natural polished finish typical of stainles steel which has been all hand worked and finished.There has been a wooden base attached back in the fifties which allows the suit to stand firmly upright.The wooden plinth has been painted with black paint.All individual parts of the full suit are correct to the suit and belong together.
The complete arm sections are fastened to the front and back breast plates with leather straps and buckles.There are steel cables running through the inside of both arms thus securing the gauntlets and arm postures.The lower leg sections are hinged and fully openable.There is a red tunis with gold trim which has been added around 1970.The suit has been in our family for around 10 years and we will be sad to see it go after so long.The weight of the complete suit is considerable and has to be dismantled for ease of moving.A fine example of dress armour which would grace a baronial large hall and would be a great talking point.The suit could be an excellent promotional item for the right business or perhaps a fine piece with which to furnish the grand entrance or reception of a posh hotel.ENQUIRIES TELEPHONE 07765 856171
