Metal Knight Figurine in Tournament Armour with Floral Decoration, 10.5 cm
A Masterpiece in Miniature
While standard armour was smooth to allow enemy blades to glance off, this knight wears armour designed to represent wealth and power. The chest and shoulders are adorned with vine reliefs and plant ornaments, hinting at the Renaissance style of armour-making from the 16th century. The knight holds a two-handed sword in a calm but vigilant stance. The shield deserves special attention. Notice the cutout on its right side – this is the so-called bouche (lance rest), used to stabilize the lance during jousting. Thus, this statuette represents a tournament victor or a high lord.
Why Have This Knight at Home?
Beyond its aesthetic value, this figurine is a great gift for lovers of history, fencing, or fantasy literature. Its stable base and balanced weight make it an ideal paperweight for important documents. Additionally, the symbolism of the tree and plants on the armour represents growth, strength, and family heritage.

Caring for the Statuette
This figurine is made of a high-quality alloy, but to maintain its lustre and details, it requires proper care:
- Dust: Regularly remove dust with a dry, soft brush. Avoid coarse cloths that could scratch the lacquer.
- Water: Do not use water or chemical cleaners. Moisture could damage the patina.
- Placement: The statuette is intended for indoor use. A fall from a height onto a hard surface (tiles) could lead to the sword or parts of the helmet breaking off.
