I'm glad to see this thread coming back to life. 
 
The finished product, if not exactly like the originals, is an interesting take on a little known subject and a visually pleasing result. 
 
I am adding here a couple more originals. One that was on auction some years ago, another from the MET.  
 
In the next post I will add some interesting text from Robinson's "Oriental Armour".
