Hi,
is there an interest in putting together referances and material concerning 15th century German display? With German I don´t neccesarly mean only modern day Germany but also Switzerland and Austria. My line of thinking is this would make things easier for beginners, especially those who might not be able to speak German and due to the language barrier have from the start massive problems. Simular topics have been opened for those doing English display and I think French also?
What do you think?Here is a list of books for those who can read German, this list is by far not complete but I would say a good starter.

Hi John,
thats o.k., what kind of stuff are you looking for and I will give you hopefully the suiting links.
Well most of those people doing good replicas in Germany can understand a basic English so you should be able to get what you wish. Although some of the best craftspeople do not have a homepage, as they are so swamped in work that there is no point in having one from their point of view. And a point to keep in mind they mainly work after exact refs, that means if you have archeologicaly drawings or photos with measurements that would make things easier.
In Germany the 14th century is also a bit under represented, most are either doing 15th century, or 12th- to 13th century but there are a few on that field.
One very good group is the following: http://www.company-elefant.com/ they are stationed in Austria
The thing is most homepages there are only in German, but if you are having difficulties just let me know and I will help where I can.Martin [ 10-15-2005: Message edited by: Martin ] -------------------- Verpa es, qui istuc leges. Non es fidenter scripto!

Martin, to be honest: Everything.You might have seen the "insane list of stuff" I put together a while back for a late 14th century English Esquire. Well, I am the chief internet seeker for the Compagnie du Chalice and in essence I am trying to make sure that my Companions have access to the markets so that when a question comes up, for example: "Where can we find multiple-wick oil lamps that are accurate to the era?" I can talk to someone who makes them or who has them to sell. Money usually is not an object, but finding the wares is. So... In essence, everything from leder schuhe to bone needles to wurfeln to iron cauldrons to holzplattern to krugen to lanterns to, well, whatever! Sometimes the merchants and craftsmen themselves serve as invaluable research tools, because they have seen something in an illustration or museum that they want to try and make, and because of this they have something new that I never would have thought of.

O.k. John although keep in mind these people are mainly specialized in making replicas of German stuff, as that is what you have there in the museums, everything else you have to fill in with a lot of information.
O.k. here are a few, starting with my favorite leather craftsman he makes the best sheaths I have seen yet, but he constantly hangs around the leathermuseum in Offenbach so he knows what he is doing!

Notes: Lutz is a member of the Company who makes wonderful tents, delivers all kinds of wooden things and started to do metalworking as well. (These tents are made of Linen not cotton and have the proper look like you see in the miniatures of the period, not like those of other suppliers, but they are not cheap!) http://www.karfunkel.de/toepferei/index.html
These people here have good stuff but also totally wrong stuff here you have to know what you are looking for! If you are after typical pottery from the Rheinland here is the place! This is a museum with added on workshop they do exact reproductions, and will work after handed in Material they did a lot of my stuff! http://www.toepfereimuseum.de/ These fellows have lots of neat stuff but some you might also be able to get from US dealers. http://www.landsknechtsrotte.de/reenactorsworld/index.html This fellow does mainly roman replicas but has a nice bunch of medieval replicas. http://www.replik.de/ Hier is an addresse for armour and weopons as my favorite maker of armour does not work any more, I mean Walter Suckert, he is the best I have seen, but if you ever see anything of his offered grab it, it is every cent worth it! Although the stuff is everything but cheap, for a pair of gauntletts I paided 1700,- Euros. http://www.hetmanmilitaria.com/ Ewald Tanzer ( Armoursmith )
Beethovenstr. 5
A-3512 Mautern
Tel: 0043 27 32 87 112
Notes: Armoursmith with a very good price-performance ratio. Delivers trustworthy. As you will notice most is identical to the Company of Sainte George Artisan list as I am a member of them, and the list is there for the same reason as here. The only differance here is that I put here mainly the German suppliers like you wished John. I hope that helps you a bit? Martin -------------------- Verpa es, qui istuc leges.

Hi Jason,
I am not sure if he speaks English, as I have never bought anything from him, but if you are in the Company mailing list ask there, I am sure you will get some replies, as to the small amount of armour that I have / had, was from Walther Suckert and John Perkins. Walther has retired no chances there. There are many that would love to have stuff from him!!
