Elements of an Armor Garniture Made for Henri I de Montmorency (1534–1614), Comte de Damville and Constable of France
The image shows a pair of ornate metal gauntlets and a metal finger. The gauntlets are silver, with a decorative pattern on the top portion and engraved designs on the lower sections. The gauntlets each have four fingers made of metal, with the thumb on the outside. The fingers are segmented and taper to a point at the tip. The gauntlets have a rope-like design around the wrist area. The metal finger is shaped like a finger and appears to be a replacement or spare part. The background of the image is light gray.
