Pair of Elbow Gauntlets
Pair of elbow gauntlets by an unknown artist. Two metal arm guards, likely made of steel, with a dark patina and visible signs of wear and tear. The guards are shaped to fit the upper arm and forearm, with a tapered design. They have a series of horizontal ridges around the middle section. The top portion of each guard is shorter and more conical. The ends of the guards are open. The guards are positioned side-by-side. The background is a plain gray color.
