Lorica Musculata
Roman Muscle Cuirass — Decorative Steel Replica
The story
The anatomical breastplate of a Roman officer, in real steel. Roman sculptors carved the muscles onto the armour so the man inside would look like a god.
The work behind this piece
The lorica musculata was the anatomical cuirass of high-ranking Roman officers, sculpted to mirror an ideal torso: imperial statues and reliefs show emperors and generals wearing it. Armour designed to impress as much as to protect. Handcrafted decorative steel reproduction, non-functional.
