Flat Ring Roman Lorica Hamata, Riveted and Alternating, ID 9 mm, Mild Steel

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.

Meticulously handmade from sturdy 17-gauge MILD STEEL FLAT RINGS (diameter of approx. 9 mm), with alternating flat rings, intricately interlocked in a FOUR-IN-ONE pattern, this chainmail armour buffers against striking attacks. Genuine Leather belts and PURE BRASS adornments make it even more accurate to its original structure.
