The documented object
The gallery presents the contemporary Archaeopolis piece in archive photographs 004. These photographs are the visual reference for your enquiry; the final specification is agreed individually.
Historical and design context
The historical-world label identifies the inspiration and archive grouping of this contemporary design. It is not a claim that the complete piece reproduces a single excavated armour.
The Met — Warfare in Ancient Greece — further historical reading, not an identified exact prototype.
Historical reference photo
A documented comparison for the form, motif or construction — not a photograph of the product offered for sale.

The relief provides a Greek comparison for a protected torso, shoulder pieces and a lower fringe. The contemporary plate arrangement and ornament remain a separate design rather than a copy of the stele.
