Royal Workshops at Greenwich
The Royal Workshops at Greenwich were the celebrated English armour-making establishment of the Tudor court, producing finely wrought plate armour embellished with gold and copper alloys. Their work stands at the intersection of craftsmanship and ceremonial display, exemplified by the Armor Garniture probably made for King Henry VIII. This collection holds a single example from the workshops, dated 1527, executed in steel, gold, leather and copper alloys.
