Pair of Pauldrons and Arm Defenses
The image shows a pair of metallic arm defenses, also known as pauldrons. The pair is made of metal with a silver-colored finish. The outer surface features engraved designs. The edge of the metal has small teeth-like projections. Each piece has a strap with a buckle on the back. The interior is white and appears to be made of a smooth material, possibly leather or fabric. The background of the image is light gray. The two pieces are positioned next to each other, with the one on the right slightly angled. The overall shape resembles a curved shoulder guard. The pieces are symmetrical. The engraved designs on the metal appear to be floral patterns. Small rivets are visible along the edges.
