Could you post photos of it?
When you say three layers,you mean three layers of liner or three layers of pteryges? If you mean pteryges,then how many layers of linen produced 6.4mm thickness?
Paul,it could be quilted armour,but i tend to think it is more likely a fur of some kind. The reason why i think it is because the rectangles were not produced by scratching vertical lines but by making a zig-zag pattern that in the end produces a quilting-like efect. Also the way he wears it resembles the way lion skins were worn,and yes,i noted that the lion skin in the same vase is depicted differently. Could be anything (with a LOT of imagination even scale)
