Plate armours

When constructing a piece of armor, I pay special attention to aesthetic qualities, maintaining full mobility.

Staying true to the style of the era, I make sure that the technical solutions in the construction itself are also appropriate for the period.

With elements of plate armor, I basically eliminated welding.

Depending on the dating and purpose of the armor, I offer very different surface finishes – I can advise on this if necessary.
