Classic 16th Century Knights Armor

Knight armor kit of the 16th century

This classic 16th century knights’ armor is a museum replica. All parts are made according to historical analogues. This custom made-to-measure combat armor is completely handcrafted by our artisans.

Attentive visitors may have noticed that there are two pieces of armour in the photo – new model and old, in black. In fact, they are an ancestor and a descendant, so to speak, and they have quite a fascinating history.

Back in 2005, when very few people had armour, a souvenir armour set was commissioned from our craftsmen. It was not intended to be worn, let alone fought. Only to be beautiful and to stand by the fireplace. Naturally, we made one. True, we simplified some elements of the armour to make it easier to put on the mannequin.

Sixteen years have passed and we have been ordered the combat version of that very interior armour. Fully functional, made of hardened steel, ready for combat, but retaining the style of that very old armour.

And so came our flight of fancy on the theme of 16th century battles armour, beautiful, stylish and fully functional.

Incidentally, it can also be used for interior decoration. You can also purchase a special Medieval armor display mannequin for this purpose from us.
