Leather scales in shield shape made of split leather.
Here you can buy small leather scales in shield shape that are made of firm cow split leather that offers reasonable protection.
The supple leather scales made of split leather, 2.5 - 3 mm thick, are simply perfect for making a solid and at the same time inexpensive scale armour yourself.
The scales are provided with two holes on the upper nicely curved edge. This makes it easy to sew or rivet them onto the desired backing material, such as leather or fabric. The individual scales should overlap if possible.
The dimensions of the armour scales are 7 x 4 cm with a hole size of 3 mm.
The leather scales are available in black and brown of uniform colour. With the leather scales in one colour, a scale armour of beautiful, clear colouring is created.
The pack contains 50 leather scales of one colour each in high quality cowhide split leather.
Leather scales have been used to make scale armour since ancient times by the Persians, Greeks and Romans and were still in use by the Byzantines and Vikings until the late Middle Ages. In addition to armour scales made of leather, those made of bronze, iron and even bone or horn were also used.
