A mail "haubergeon" dating: 16th - 17th Century provenance: Europe, Made of riveted iron rings with half-domed rivets, of varying size and thickness depending on the areas to be protected. Made to protect the torso only. Still provided with its collar, made of very tightly woven rings and constructed in two sections; the neckline has a V-shaped front opening and a small turn-down collar (bavero) that could be fastened for greater protection of the throat. The collar shows traces of encrustment, probably due to remains of old fabric. The garment was apparently made without sleeves, given the clean edges of the armholes, or was deliberately modified in this way. Substantially well preserved, with few missing rings (in particular, one place on the flank has an opening where rings are missing). Of fine quality and well preserved. Very rare. Old patina.
