renaissance theatre breastplate

Hello,

I bought this ''theater'' breasplate,
the man who sold it used it for his 10 years'old son for a carnaval knight costume...

Some parts ( the fleur de lys...) seems just a ''cheap'' ''recent'' replica
but the ties seems quite old ( 19th century ? ),
breast and back are well made and there is a stamp.

( I don't think they did that for theatre use ...)

Have you an idea about age of this kind of replicas ?

Thank's in advance
