DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Ready-for-Battle Viking Greaves are fancy leather greaves designed to protect the calves. The armour is constructed from leather straps cut from chrome-tanned, split leather, and weaved together to create a beautiful design. The armour is secured to the leg by sturdy leather straps and brass buckles.

The Viking Greaves are hemmed with additional soft split leather to keep the armour from deforming with excessive wear. This armour matches our Viking Armour and Bracers, but has a distinct, neutral style that will fit with almost any combination of costuming for your first adventure.

HISTORY

• Inspired by lamellar armour worn by the Vikings, which would have included small iron plates
• Historically, using only leather as armour is factually inconclusive--most Viking wore ordinary clothing and used a shield as protection

The Italian company Fucina del Drago is famous for its beautiful leather products. They only use high quality leather and materials. 

A travelled adventurer shows class by wearing these greaves - just as a noble lady would.  

The elegant greaves from the Lancelot set made from two leather pieces riveted onto each other. The elaborate embossing show the Fleur de Lys and wave-like patterns - almost maritime ornaments in wide banded straps. The greaves are closed with two buckle-straps in the back. Perfectly suitable for knights, wealthy nobles, or even mariners. 

Round (table) it all out with the complete matching set.

You think about dreaming it, we will take care of making it happen.

Our work briefly translates into this: starting from an idea, a sketch, a story and transforming those smoky lines into an object that can be used in the context (whether strictly historical or fantasy) for which it was designed.

Design therefore, at the base of each project, modulated on the budget of each client.

Realization, with a particular attention to detail and real use (not only display but rather mainly products made to be worn, used, lived).

Assistance, so that everything that has already been created does not suffer the damage of time or the wear and tear of years of use.

Black Dragon is our brand for the design and construction of weapons, armor and props oriented to LARP, Cosplay and film productions.

These are articles made of materials such as plastazote, evazote, resins and the like, used to give shape and substance to the wildest dreams of every designer or to reproduce objects not otherwise available because of fantasy.

It was born from the meeting between the Fucina del Drago and Black Forge, an artisan workshop that has been active for years in the LARP and Cosplay sector at national and international level which, in February 2020, joined forces in the common goal of expanding their work and their skills to offer them on a wider market also linked to film productions.

From this collaboration, projects related to TV series have been born that have benefited from years of experience and tests on materials, at the same time highlighting on the one hand the absolute reachable realism and on the other the possibility of truly shaping the imagination to give shape to things otherwise unattainable.

From the feedback obtained, the push that led us to strongly believe in this new project was born to the point of creating a brand dedicated only to this type of product.

A fundamental component of our work remains attentive listening to the customer and continuous contact in order to be certain not only of the achievement of the final result, but also and above all of full satisfaction: from this point of view it makes no difference that you are a live role player, a cosplayer or a film production company, we will still be able to accompany you from the preparatory sketch to the finished product in order to give you the most precise possible idea of ​​what we are making for you.
