Cellini's supreme skill in chasing is demonstrated by the ceremonial morion and shield embellished with decorative scenes, which were executed for Cosimo I de' Medici. It is not known whether or not Cellini executed other pieces of decorated armour, but the documents in his Florentine workshop make frequent reference to supply of cold steel arms.
