This Windsor Castle 6\" King Henry VIII, metal Foot Combat Armour statue has a square wooden stand and it has a name attached to it on the bottom, picture # 12. It is new in box, never removed from box and in good condition. The box though has dents, especially on the front right side of the plastic cover, it has some scratches and on top of the box like a line, it has creasing due to packing and storing and a sticker price still attached on the back side of the box, but somehow in good condition. I bought this metal statue at Windsor Castle Store or Gift Shop in 2000 and it\'s been stored since then. Here\'s what it says on the box.
King Henry VIII founded the royal armour workshop at Greenwich Palace in 1515. Top rank craftsmen were brought in from Germany to Greenwich and the foot combat armour (reproduced here as a highly accurate metal miniature) is the first surviving example of their work. The suit is extremely unusual, encasing the whole of the body in armour and leaving no gaps at all. There are only 2 or 3 other suits of armour in the world that cover so much of the body.
This suit of armour was produced for the King\'s use at the Field of Cloth of Gold. The original is on display at the Royal Armours, Tower of London. The rest of the information can be read in English on the right side of the box. While on the left side of the box is in French. Please see photos for my description and for more visible details. Please see my other listings for more metal soldier figurine and other collectible items. Thanks for looking!
