Probably Italy, late 15th to early 16th century; we do not rule out a later, faithful reproduction of the 18th-century type.
Although it could serve as a standalone piece of armour, this item also complements the iconic sallet helmet,
forming its lower section when worn together.
Provenance: Private collection of a gentleman of standing.
