Here’s a reproduction of a composite italian armour from the 1480’s. What you see is the result of almost 5 years of work, spent researching, designing and making.
The main source is the wooden statue of Bartolomeo Colleoni placed in his funeral chapel in Bergamo. All the missing parts were reproduced after different sources, like the effigy of Pino III Ordelaffi for the cuirasse, B4 armour’s gauntlets and the Devil’s Mask armet from Udine.

The armour has proved amazing funcionality in action both on horse and on foot.

A magnificent result achieved thanks to the help and work of master armourer Jiří Klepač who gave huge support with the design process and forged the harness.
