Flat Ring Roman Lorica Hamata, Riveted and Alternating, ID 6 mm, Natural

The Roman Lorica Hamata is directly inspired by Celtic design as the Celts are the people that have been credited for the invention of chainmail. The Lorica Hamata that we decided to reconstruct here still keeps a lot of its Celtic original traits making it perfectly suitable equipment for Roman or Celtic cavalrymen or even legionary of Caesar during the Gallic wars or any similar legionary fighting of Hannibal’s armies during the Punic Wars.

This historical mail shirt is intricately HANDMADE from 18 gauge mild steel rings with a diameter of approx. 6 mm each, riveted using DOME RIVETS. For increased strength, the rings alternate with SOLID FLAT RINGS. The ornate PURE SOLID BRASS adornments are the most attractive feature of this historical mail armour that also holds the two shoulder ring plates in place. This comes in medium, large, extra large and double extra large sizes to fit you conveniently according to your size.
