Life-Size Templar Knight Armor – 200 cm – Marto Toledo
A Jewel of Toledo Steel
Since Roman times, Toledo has been synonymous with the highest quality steel and armory craftsmanship. This armor from the exclusive "Historical Armours" collection is made of polished steel and hand-shaped to imitate the armor of the High Middle Ages and Renaissance. The set includes:
- Full plate armor with articulated joints (for a realistic look).
- Chainmail skirt peeking out from under the breastplate.
- Knight's helmet of the Great Helm style (sugarloaf) with a golden cross.
- Templar cloak with a hood and the iconic red cross.
- Sword and shield with Order symbolism held by the knight.
- Solid wooden base ensuring the stability of the entire statue.
Intended Use
It is important to emphasize that this armor is designed exclusively as a luxury interior decoration. Although it has articulated parts, it is not intended for wearing or for any kind of fencing or combat (buhurt, re-enactment). The internal structure and mountings are designed for static presentation on the base. It is ideal for entrance halls, representative corporate spaces, museums, castle exhibitions, or as the ultimate trophy for history lovers.
Historical Context
Although the Templars (abolished in 1312) historically wore mostly maille armor with supplementary plates, this suit represents the romanticized ideal of a knight as it developed in later centuries (15th and 16th), when armor became not only protection but also luxury attire and a status symbol. Marto combines iconic Templar symbolism with the aesthetic perfection of later plate armor, such as those seen in the Royal Armoury in Madrid.
