These gauntlets get their name from the unique sandglass-like form. They are replicas of the gauntlets from the well known full plate armor “Churburg #13 harness”. The inside of the gauntlets is blackened and lined with soft, sewn-in suede leather gloves. Reinforced with stylish looking sheet brass, located at the knuckles, wrist and lower cuff. Thanks to the sewn-in suede leather gloves, they are very comfortable to wear.

Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.
