Item Details
Description
A RARE EAST TIBETAN DECORATED LEATHER LAMELLAR SKIRT FROM AN ARMOUR, 15TH/17TH CENTURY
formed of ten rows of rectangular plates decorated with gold scrolls and border ornament, all joined by leather thongs and the bottom row with a series of suspended toggles

An armour of related type was sold in these rooms 25 June 2014, lot 26. For a discussion of the group see Larocca 2006, pp. 124-5. The toggles along the bottom row might suggest a tribal origin in the foothills.
