Pair of Thigh Defenses (Cuisses)
The Pair of Thigh Defenses (Cuisses) are two metal pieces, likely made of steel, with a silver-gray color. The piece on top is shaped like a teardrop with the pointed end facing up and to the right. It has a decorative edge with small bumps around it. The piece underneath is cylindrical and has a slight taper from top to bottom. A seam runs down the center of this piece. The surface of both pieces appears weathered, with visible pitting and wear marks. The background is a plain light gray color.
