Looks nice although it's metalic. But it doesn't seem to have much of a sheen, at least in the photo.
Quote:About the pattern; It was normally woven into the fabric, as each piece was custom made.
Given the expense that went into making such patterns I wonder if a pattern would have been reused on a new tunic when the old one wore out. This seems to have been done in Late Roman times. Though a rich man probably would not have resorted to this.
