Brayette

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black chain mail piece titled "Brayette" by an unknown artist. The chain mail piece is made of small, interlocking metal rings and is shaped like a triangular bikini bottom. The piece is symmetrical, with the top edge having a V-shape and the bottom edge being pointed. There are two small labels at the bottom of the image, one on the left and one on the right. The label on the left appears to be a ruler or scale, and the label on the right has blurry text that likely indicates the museum and collection. The background of the image is a light gray color with darker gray speckles.
