Re: (Valindia embossed renaissance suit of armour)
The armour arrived safely and has been assembled. It is a wonderful piece of work! I generally have little interest in reproductions, but when it comes to suits of armour, complete sets are virtually unobtainable at any price. The amount of hand work and attention to period detail is exceptional. I couldn't be more satisfied and look forward to future offerings.
Regards, Dr. Rogers.

"Thank you for getting the gorget to me as quickly as you did. It is perfect for what I will be using it for and fits almost perfectly with both my court garb and chainmail coif. I look forward to commissioning more with you in the near future."

Dear Mr.Valentine. I received my embossed shield earlier today - well, it's been over 4 hours now and I keep staring at it. Words cannot describe my excitement when I opened the package...The shield came with everything I requested, it is fully functional, has a fine weight and as for the finishing touches...I think it would suffice to say that it surpassed my expectations by 1000%.
I love the fact that you are able to do anything, any design one asks for, any specifications, and carry it out so perfectly. A huge thanks to everybody involved with this project and bravo for its quicker than quick shipping. Thanks again. - Best regards, Chris Michas (Spain)

Hi, Rob. Just wanted to let you know that I recieved my order today. It's
absolutely fantastic and well worth the wait. Everything looks and fits
perfectly! I appreciate the hard work you and your crew must have put into

future. Thanks again, Derek

Greetings. Personally I would like to say you do a pretty
fine job and it's just marvelous. I'm happy to know that I could count
from now on an armoury to do some pieces for my armour
or my horse. I just can`t wait to see Jimmy wearing that chanfron! My thanks
and perhaps eventually I'll go for the crinnet if things go well. May God bless your
enterprises! Marie.

Hello, I received my helm today. It is absolutely fantastic!!!! I love it!!! It has
been a great experience doing business with you. I have heard many of the
horror stories of other armouries ..... it is nice to see a good honest business.
The helm is great and fits well. And was early. The video was also great.
I now have an even greater respect for what you do, it's not as easy as it
may seem. Thanks again for a great job. Randy

Dear Sir, I promised that I would contact you to reassure you that I got my helmet.
I can say that it was worth the wait. I am very pleased with the job that you
have done. I can say that I can not think of any other helmet that I would want
to wear besides this one. It is so good, that my partner in collecting medieval
items said and I quote, " I want." I think that here in the future he will be buying
many products from your armoury. thank you.

Hi Rob. I got the Cuirass and it is outstanding.
I could not be more pleased. Thank you for taking the time to do it right!!
I am continuing my efforts to raise a troop of the 3rd Cuirassiers in
USA and will use you for our source. Once I have my entire uniform together,
I will send you a photo of it in action.
Best Regards. Your professionalism and service is greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much !! Paul.

I just received my order today and I am extremely pleased with the product.
My fiancee is also really surprised as to how much better it looks in person
than as to the picture on the web page. I would definitely recommend
your company to anyone who has interest into the products you make. Thank you sincerely.

I bought your video and thought it was excellent. It has helped me greatly in
starting to work with plate armour. Regards, Zach.

A beautiful suit, I have no complaints. Its a bit noisy of course, but I play Bagpipes
so I'm used to it. I will not hesitate to recommend your work to anyone
that asks me where I got it. Thanks again and I'll make sure to get some good pictures.
