Jeffrey D. Wasson, the armorer who crafted the accurate replica of the Art Institute’s Greenwich armor, and Jonathan Tavares, the Art Institute's associate curator of arms, armor and European decorative arts before 1700, discuss how utilizing experimental archaeology allowed them to uncover the methods used by Renaissance armorers in crafting the bulletproof protection.

As an Education staffer and Arms & Armor demonstrator at the former Higgins Armory Museum, I want to apologize to Jonathan for him never getting "picked" for arms & armor demos... Now that the collection is at Worcester Art Museum, and (if) live armor demos return in the near future, any time you want to come, (I'd) be more than happy to try and make up for the lost opportunity

Basically an entire documentary on experiments I'd conduct myself if I had the technological capability to do so? Thank you for accomplishing a dream that for me would be more than hopeless.

Was a paper published on the fireproof experiment?
