Freya SCA Leather Body Armour

Description

Designed by Black Raven Armoury founder and teacher of The Academy Alex Agricola, the Freya SCA Armour was a design born of the inspiration taken from countless students across the world. Conceptualised “live” during the very first module of his foundation course & developed from start to finish in a class filled with aspiring craftspeople, it was created to demonstrate his theory of “less is more”

Please Note the Armour does not come with the metal fittings at the collar

A classic looking piece, yet the simplicity coupled with detail, echoing a heroism while its embossed detail telling a story of strength and endurance, this piece … both a journey and a story.

Now comes a unique choice …. have it built by Black Raven Armoury OR join Alex in the Academy Course teaching you how to create this and many of your own projects.

The Freya Leather Armour is hand built to the highest standards by Black Raven Armoury’s master armorsmiths from the only the very best quality leather to a minimum 6mm thickness for SCA combat

This armour has been hand cut, hand embossed, riveted, hand stitched, dyed, and antiqued and displays a variety of Norse Dragon themed embossing finished with smaller edge embossing.

The Freya Leather Body Armour has been hand water formed to a practical shape suitable for combat comfort and is adjustable for fit at the both the sides and shoulders.

This armour is designed to be worn and used and is suitable for LARPING and re-enactment and is detailed enough to be used on screen, it will stand up to close scrutiny and the sternest critique.

IF this piece is beyond your budget or maybe you’d just like to have a go making it yourself, why not take a look at The Black Raven Online Academy as this is one of the final patterns offered as part of module 11 towards the end of the 12 month online training programme.
