Medieval Gorget with Pauldrons, 14th c., 1.6 mm Steel

This wearable, articulated reconstruction of a late medieval plate armour for the neck (gorget) and shoulders / upper arms (pauldrons, sometimes spelled pouldrons or powldrons) is hand-forged from 1.6 mm thick steel. The pauldrons feature steel rondels (so-called besagues or besagews) to protect the armpits. These rondels are attached to each shoulder piece with sturdy leather and rivets.

For proper freedom of movement, the pauldrons’ sliding plates or lames are connected together by sturdy leather straps that are riveted on the inside. The shoulder parts are removable and close at upper arm level with an adjustable leather strap and brass buckle for a comfortable, custom fit.

Whether used for combat re-enactment, LARP, stage or cosplay, this battle-ready neck and shoulder armour will make your transformation into a proud, noble knight or warrior just perfect.
