19TH CENTURY BESAGEWS IN GERMAN STYLE OF 1470

An excellent matched pair of gothic style fluted besagews shaped like petals. A common design seen in use in Germany throughout 1450 - 1500.

Fluted evenly with great care, these besagews show true craftsmanship, straight sharp flutes radiating out across this 14cm diameter surface.

Purchased from the American John Woodman Higgins Armory Museum sale. Original metal tag. Have some age to them. We consider that they are 19th century high quality reproductions, possibly produced by the well known German armourer of that time, Ernst Schmidt. See the following URL for more details:
