Phillip II Golden Etched Suit of Armor
Generously embellished in detail, the Philip II Golden Suit of Armor is simply awe-inspiring. Allow your eyes to gaze over this suit of armor and marvel in the elaborate golden floral etching. Made by the gifted Marto of Spain, this very well maybe one of the most exceptional pieces you will ever see. Designed to replicate those which were discovered inside the Royal Armoury in Madrid, it is believed the originals date back to the time of Charles I of Spain and Charles V of Germany in the 16th century. Handcrafted in Spain using traditional materials, steel and iron have been painstakingly molded and then carefully engraved. 16th century patterns and textiles are clearly represented in the brocades. Old patina has finished the metal and then it has been rust-protected. A premium solid wood base that features sturdy reinforced metal angles is graciously included for a stunning display. Please allow between 120 and 180 days for delivery as this item ships directly from Spain after being made to order. |
