Description
Svenska: Bläs, snopp och stjärn är välbekanta begrepp för någon som är hästintresserad. De betecknar olika medfödda märken i hästens panna, ett slags igenkänningstecken. Termen stjärn innebär att märket är tämligen runt och sitter i pannans mitt. Därifrån har häststjärnan, hästhuvudets rustningsdel, fått sitt namn. Häststjärnan skulle skydda springarens huvud och ögon. Vid 1600-talets början, när denna häststjärna är tillverkad användes hästpansar vanligtvis endast vid ceremoniella tillfällen eller för att markera rang och värdighet, som ett slags igenkänningstecken.
English: The champron is the head piece of a horse's barding (armour). It would often have a round armour plate with a spike at the centre of the forehead. The champron was intended to protect the horse's head and eyes. The eye pieces also had the added advantage of preventing the horse from seeing anything coming towards it. At the start of the 18th century, when this champron was made, battle tactics had shifted towards more mobile cavalry units compared to the Middle Ages, which meant that barding was usually only used on ceremonial occasions or as a mark of rank and position – a form of identification.
