FS: "Gorget" for strapped spaulders/pauldrons/arms

(1/4) > >>

Sir James A:
Have for sale a, what I'll call gorget, with strapping for pauldrons/spaulders and arms. It's not a true gorget in that it doesn't actually cover the neck. It's ideal if you have strap and buckles for your arms/shoulders, or don't feel like making an arming coat / gambeson with arming points. Probably would be good for loaner armor as part of a set, since the straps allow for adjustment in how high/low you buckle the shoulders and arms. I converted my arm harness to pointing (since I had an existing one the same way), so I don't need this any more.





Oh, I double-riveted all the straps, so that they stay "outward", and won't twist and turn around and get stuck. They can still get stuck folded under, but since they don't pivot at all, it's at least somewhat easier. :)

$50 locally for my Order brothers, add shipping if I need to ship it - should fit in a flat rate large box at $16 ($66 shipped)

Sir Wolf:
you can always add a collar onto that. shouldn't be hard. actually the body part is always the hardest part.

I've got 3 collared plate gorgets and a brig gorget, plus a "armor stuff to do" list a mile long. I'm okay with selling this one. :)

Allan Senefelder:
This is a simple base plate gorget I made a while ago. I did a few over the years ( 5 or 6 ). I learned about the about 7-8 years ago when I got to handle a very late ( 1495-1500 ) gothic harness ( original ) that had a simple base plate gorget just for suspending the arm/shoulder harness from. I do not know how common this was but handled at least one late original gothic suit that used it. James is asking about $30 dollars less than I used to get for them. 

Sir Matthew:
Allan has a set of Munnions up on AA that would go excellent with this. Just sayin'  ;)
