Maces

This medieval mace was part of the original collection of the British Museum, bequeathed by Sir Hans Sloane in 1753. Sloane had a small collection of weapons and this mace was one of his important medieval items. It was discovered in Windsor, and may have originally been kept at Windsor Castle. The origin of the ring on the shaft is unknown and may have been used for to mount the weapon for display.

Our English Mace is crafted from high carbon steel and, although robust, is better suited to display. The pointy flanges mean that this item is not suitable for re-enactment but is great for living history.

This is an authentic late medieval and Renaissance 16th Century German Mace, hand-forged from steel. It shows the raw strength and practical design of weapons once used by Landsknechts and German foot soldiers.

The solid flanged head, finished in matte black, was made to crush or pierce armor, giving it both a fearsome look and true historical accuracy. A strong metal shaft adds durability and weight, while the leather-wrapped grip offers a secure, comfortable hold. The long leather lanyard strap keeps it safe at your side and helps prevent accidental drops during use or displays.

Weighing about 1.5 kg, this mace has the real feel of its historical versions, making it a great piece for stage combat, medieval fairs, or private collections. Whether hung on a wall, carried with armor, or displayed at events, it adds striking historical presence.
