Just thought you might like having a look at this site: I have no personnal experience ordering stuff from them but they have been in business for many years.

Some of their stuff looks very nice and there is an english version of their site.

I have no buying experience with them but I remember meeting Eric Dubè at a film media fair where he had a display of his armour and trying to market it to film producers. ( Rentals ) His stuff looked good then and this was 10 to 15 years ago. ( Late 1980"s or early 1990"s , so he has been in business for a long time and I think well though of here. ( Although my contacts with local living history groups here is nil, so far, so I can only give a limited endorsement about him. )

I met Eric in 1993. He was making fairly advanced 15th C style harness in mild steel then. Having worked steadily at it for several years, his work became more refined every time I saw a piece. Admittedly, I haven't seen his work for the last two years. Seems like he makes earlier period stuff as well.

I don't know what his backlog is like though....

I just ordered an "English style" late 15th century harness from Eric. He is easy to deal with and very quick in his responses. The backlog can't be too bad at the present because he is telling me he should complete the harness next month!!
I will try to post reviews on everything when I get it.
