Product description
A shoulder piece of this type was also known as a pixane. Pixanes were sewn to the gambeson and were usually worn beneath the suit of armour. The wearer was thus also protected at the exposed areas of the suit of armour.
The shoulder piece is crafted from flat chain mail rings with an inner diameter of 8 mm. The rings are woven four in one and subsequently riveted with round rivets. The shoulder piece measures 36 x 27 cm and has a neck opening of 15 x 24 cm. It weighs approx. 0,8 kg.
