Corrazina Pics?

Mykaru · Post by **Mykaru** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 7:13 am

As the search function is temporarily disabled. I hoping for links to the blue and yellow corrazina Jeff Wasson did. I *have* the posed pic, but there were other process pics (rear view, open etc.) out there that no longer seem to be on his site. Anybody have them or the address?

sorry Olaf,
No can do. I found them on Jeff's website. I remembered it because it is so similar to the Blue and white one I made in 1990.

Unfortunately, the above pic is the one I already have. :sad:

Talbot, thanks for the try though. Anyone else?

This is what I make and I as I have been led to believe here on the AA pages, is more as to what the Corrizina is type-a-formed.

Here's some pics of a really nice repro corrazina, both the front and the inside. The shell is of leather, and the inside faces of the plates are covered with leather as well, to prevent corrosion.

Hope this helps!

Corey,
Can I ask where you got the corenza from it looks like one that used to be in a shop I worked out of just wondering if you got it from the same place.

Thanks for the pics thats what I need.

Jeez, I wish it was mine.

Some guy was selling it on MyArmoury, on the second page of the classifieds section. I believe it was made by Stanislav Prozek.

Anyhow, it was such a good example of a corrazina, that I had to save the pictures.

I think it's still for sale.

This guy had it listed on ebay a while back he sent me some really good pics I just cant seem to locate them on my hard drive but let me poke around and see what I can find and post

Regulus and Corey,

Thanks for the try, but both of those are copies of the Bashford Dean Frankenstein at the Met. There are a number of those (some of which are quite nice) floating around.

Iconography shows hooped faulds. I certainly wouldn't want to try sitting on a horse wearing the Dean style corrazinas.

Pretty sure there's a young woman in England trying to sell that very same item since she recently bought it and it doesn't fit her. Certainly Czech Mac made it and its covered with the same blue material.

Do these help?

iaenmor · Post by **iaenmor** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 1:23 am

Not sure where I got them. Might have been here or somewhere on the net.

Mykaru · Post by **Mykaru** » Tue Mar 11, 2008 2:27 am

Those are from a German site IIRC. I already have those. Not bad, but not to the quality of Jeff's work IMO.

Keep 'em coming.

Hi All,

How early do the corrazina's show up?

I've always liked the "red suit" pictured in the Met, and thought that it was a late 14th century composite. Is that the common thought?

Thanks! Alan

Ha! Found the Geoffrey pics!

They were on the Archive the entire time.

http://forums.armourarchive.org/phpBB2/ ... ht=#694567

You will have to scroll down to see the pics. You may still want to contact him though to see if he's got any pics w/ better detail.

Thanks Galvyn,

Those are exactly the pics I was searching for. My search fu is weak.

That is the nicest corrizina reproduction I have seen to date - really, it is the only one I would really call a reproduction.

That said, if you make another, the plates need to overlap on the centerline by a little more than they do here - the breastplates are asymmetrical in the examples of fragments I am aware of, allowing for the overlap.

iaenmor · Post by **iaenmor** » Wed Mar 12, 2008 6:00 pm

Chef I wish I had made it. Like I said I found it either here or around the net somewhere. It is my inspiration for when I get around to making one though. Thanks for pointing out the lack of overlap in the front. I hadn't noticed it before. When I do get around to making I will make to sure to correct it. I hope I can do as good a job.

If you8 take your time, and pay attention to the details, I am sure you can do as well.

Andrew Young · Post by **Andrew Young** » Wed Mar 12, 2008 7:40 pm

Here is one that I made years ago...later cut down to use the back for a backplate to a steel breastplate (last picture):

There has been some discussion on Corrazina's lately. There are some really good pictures on this particular thread, so I thought I'd "bump" it back into the light.

Another project.....

Happy New Year everyone!

What was the time period in which this armor was in? Just curious.
