Black Knight Statue with Gold Ornamentation, 31 cm
Warrior in Blackened Armour
As a historian, I must appreciate the chosen aesthetic. In the Middle Ages, armour was indeed often blackened (for example, using linseed oil and soot) not only for aesthetic reasons but primarily as protection against rust. This statue faithfully mimics this look. The knight wears a heavy Great Helm (bucket helm), typical of the 13th and 14th centuries, giving him an anonymous and menacing expression. Chainmail is visible beneath the plate components and surcoat. The heater shield is decorated in the same style as the rest of the armour, suggesting that this is a high-ranking nobleman or a member of an elite guard.

- Cleaning: Remove dust with a fine dry brush or duster. Avoid water and chemical cleaners that could damage the hand-painted patina.

- Placement: The statue is intended strictly for indoor use.
