Of rounded, medially-ridge form, projecting forward over the belly. The shallow neck-opening has a bold, angular, inward turn. The arm-openings are each pierced at their upper and lower ends with rivet-holes for the attachment of missing moveable gussets. The lower edge of the breastplate is pierced near its outer ends with rivet-holes for the attachment of a missing waist-plate. The top of the right shoulder is pierced with a pair of later wiring-holes. The top of the left shoulder may have been similarly pierced, but is now broken away. A prominent threaded stud is riveted just below the centre of the neck. The thread is hand-cut and possibly contemporary. It may have been for bolting on a reinforce or the lower edge of a helmet or face-defence.
