Cuirass

A cuirass (; French: cuirasse, Latin: coriaceus) is a piece of armour that covers the torso, formed of one or more pieces of metal or other rigid material. The word probably originates from the original material, leather, from the French cuirace and Latin word coriacea. The use of the term "cuirass" generally refers to both the chestplate (or breastplate) and the back piece together; whereas a breastplate only protects the front, a cuirass protects both the front and the back.
