Armour

Armour is protective clothing intended to defend its wearer from intentional harm in combat and military engagements, typically associated with soldiers. Armour has been used throughout recorded history, beginning with hides, leather, and bone, before progressing to bronze, then steel during the Roman Era, to modern fabrics such as Kevlar, Dyneema and ceramics.

Steph,
Did you make this piece? From what is it made? It's a great organic shape.

I am wondering the same as Karen. It reminds me of a cocoon. I like it.

Thanks for your nice comments!
I did make it ! It's papier mâché and it's part of a shell serie I made a few years ago ( and it's the only one in paper).
