$ 1,250.00

 

An Antique Victorian Period Miniature Suit of Armor.  14” tall overall.  Very good quality armor in the style of the late 16th century, made circa. 19th - early 20th century.  The suit stands on a square wood plinth.  The Victorian period (1837-1901) had a huge Gothic revival for interior décor for the wealthy.  Mansions and castles were decorated with all sorts of medieval weapons and suits of armor of all sizes.  Original antique arms & armor were in short supply resulting in a few companies producing very high quality copies to fill the demand which are now very collectible antiques.  The metal has a dark brown rust age patina.  A great little suit of armor ready for display.

NOTE:  The miniature suit of armor had a sword but it is now missing.
