Kai. There is one more nice bechter in Poznan museum Poland. In some aspects better than the one in Krakow but I like the fluent line of the Krakow one.
Wojska Polskiego has on strap-on bechter stated to be russian.
Maybe someone has more pictures of those.

Also for some reason there is square corner on the right shoulder where the rings are changing position.


I thought the last 5 rows or so of your sleeves also change row direction at the "hem"?






Yes indeed Mart.

Here is a scan from Zygulskis book. Another similar chain mail.

Yes, quite similar. Does Zygulski give any provenance for his example? I presume he also gives it a 16th century date.

Yes 16th century.
I think its in the Wojska Polskiego Warszawa. But no provenance or closer information of its origin.
Funny group of shirts.
