Description
Step into the role of a Viking, Rus, or Khazar warrior with our Birka Lamellar Plates, a set of 100 meticulously handcrafted pieces designed for the historical enthusiast eager to accurately recreate or innovate upon traditional lamellar armor. Drawing inspiration from the famed archaeological sites of Birka and Balyk-Sook, these plates not only enable the assembly of historically accurate armor but also invite you to immerse yourself in the craftsmanship and martial spirit of ancient warriors.
Each plate is fashioned from 20 gauge mild steel, chosen for its optimal blend of durability and lightness, ensuring that your armor stands up to the rigors of reenactment or display without encumbering you. The dimensions of each plate—9.8 cm in length and 2.8 cm in width—are tailored to facilitate a versatile assembly, suitable for various armor designs and body sizes.
Understanding the importance of preservation, we have coated each lamellar plate with a protective layer of oil. This coating, while temporary, offers initial protection against rust and can be easily removed, allowing for the immediate use or customization of the plates.
Whether you are a historical reenactor, a enthusiast of Viking, Rus, or Khazar cultures, or simply someone with a passion for historical armor, our Birka Lamellar Plates provide the foundation upon which you can build a truly authentic piece of protective wear, blending historical fidelity with personal expression.
