Description
Imagine stepping into the world of the 14th century, where knights adorned in resplendent armor galloped across verdant fields, their impressive breastplates glistening in the sun. The Italian Churburg Globose Breastplate, meticulously crafted from 16-gauge mild steel, brings this exhilarating experience to life. Inspired by an authentic piece from the renowned Churburg collection, dated circa 1390, this cuirass embodies both historical accuracy and exceptional craftsmanship.
Designed with a perfect balance of PROTECTION and MOBILITY, this breastplate is the ultimate choice for LARP enthusiasts and historical reenactors alike. Whether you’re charging into battle among your fellow aficionados or simply showcasing your commitment to historical fidelity, this armor will elevate your ensemble to new heights. Pair it with our specialized gambeson and chainmail shirts (available separately), and prepare to be the envy of your fellow participants.
The artistry behind this breastplate is evident in its handcrafted design. Each piece is shaped and styled with remarkable attention to detail, ensuring that not only does it look stunning, but it also performs superbly in action. The one-piece construction means that it is significantly more resistant to the rigors of battle compared to older designs, such as the coat of plates, allowing for an experience where most attacks harmlessly glance off the reinforced steel.
What sets the Italian Churburg Globose Breastplate apart is its ADJUSTABILITY. Thanks to multiple genuine leather straps, you can customize the fit to your body with ease. Our sizing options accommodate a variety of body types:
- Medium (Chest 94-104cm)
- Large (Chest 105-115cm)
- Extra-Large (Chest 116-126cm)
Remember to measure yourself while wearing the gambeson for the perfect fit!
For collectors and enthusiasts, it’s worth noting that this very breastplate is a reflection of a similar original cuirass crafted by the same distinguished Italian armorers of the period. The other piece, which was also dated around 1390, adds a layer of authenticity and historical lineage, making this item not just armor, but a piece of history.
Imagine donning this exquisite breastplate at your next event, feeling the weight of the past on your shoulders while knowing that you possess a piece of craftsmanship that has been assembled with care and dedication. The Italian Churburg Globose Breastplate is more than an accessory; it is a statement of passion, heritage, and bravery.
