From the Loseley MSS, page 134-136:
The following inventory of the contents of Sir Thomas Cawarden’s Armory, seized on behalf of Queen Mary Tudor on Jan. 30, 1533, caught my eye because of the mention of 'Almayne Ryvetts'.
So, I would be curious to see more information on 'riveted' armor in the early 16th C in Germany. While I believe I have seen examples as shown in museums, I cannot recall ever seeing it in non-allegorical art images. Probably just more proof that I shouldn't trust artists...*grin*
