Two vambraces 1510-25 and later
Formed of two plates. The outer vertically fluted with a recessed border parallel to the inward turned roll at the wrist. Plates secured by a hinge on one side and a pin on the innter plate engaging a hole in the outer plate. Pierced for rivets to secure lames for the (lost) elbow cop. One vambrace is of the period, the other appears to be a pretty good 19th/20th c. copy made to match.
Provenance: Joe Kindig Jr. (1891-1971) then by descent.
