This stylish medieval bevor impresses not only with its authentic design but also with its excellent value for money. It is the ideal choice for anyone looking to complete their knight’s with a detailed, high quality yet affordable piece of armour.
The bevor was an essential part of medieval armour. Usually made from a single piece of plate armour, it protected the chin and throat and filling the gap between helmet and breastplate. Originally, the bevor was worn in combination with a sallet. As the sallet evolved into the close helm and burgonet, the bevor also developed into a hinged plate that protected the lower face and throat.
This fully wearable reconstruction of a late medieval bevor is made from 1.2 mm steel and blackened on the inside for better corrosion resistance. The bevor, also known as a beaver, features the multi-part construction typical of Gothic plate armour from the 15th and 16th centuries. While the gorget and chin piece are fixedly riveted to one another, the top plate is attached with hinges and can be raised or lowered. When up, it reaches below the eyes. A small retractable pin, on the right side of the chin section, keeps the folding lame securely in place. It is reinforced at the upper edge and features a row of round cut-outs that ensure proper ventilation. The rolled edge is adorned with grooves. A braided cord at the lower edge allows the bevor to be securely fastened to a gambeson or plate armour. The bevor is open at the back (no neck plate) and equipped with a riveted, sturdy leather strap and brass buckle. The strap is size adjustable to ensure a comfortable, custom fit.
The collar is ideal for late medieval and Renaissance settings. Equally suited for the portrayal of a broad array of historical figures and fictional/fantasy characters, it will make your transformation into a proud, noble knight or warrior just perfect, whether used for medieval re-enactment, LARP, stage, TV/film, costuming, or cosplay.

Please note:
To ensure that this armour is the right fit for you, please remember to take your measurements over your gambeson and/or piece of or chainmail you may plan to wear underneath!
Specs may slightly vary from piece to piece.
The steel used here is not rust-proof and might show slight surface tarnishing in places. We recommend you to maintain plate armour on a regular basis, for example using Ballistol Universal Oil, which is ideally suited for steel care.
