Standing at 74 centimetres, this exquisite piece captures the essence of the period with remarkable fidelity, featuring a chest plate beautifully acid-etched with the scene of a soldier battling a dragon. The craftsmanship extends to the articulated arms and legs, and a helmet whose top lifts, all resting on an aged wooden base that enhances its historical allure.This meticulously crafted artefact reflects the Victorian era’s fascination with the romantic aspects of medieval history, appealing to collectors and enthusiasts of fine antiques. As a convergence of artistry and historical curiosity, it serves as a striking centrepiece, embodying the chivalry, myths, and skilled craftsmanship of a bygone era. This miniature suit of armour is not just a collector's item but a portal to the past, inviting admiration and contemplation of its intricate details and cultural significance.
