Why This Chainmail Shirt Is FASCINATING

From its inscriptions on EVERY ring to its previous owner, this chainmail shirt is a VERY special piece in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection. Sean Belair, associate conservator in the MET's Arms and Armor conservation lab, takes Adam on a tour of the artifact's many unique features and mysteries, and explains why its restoration took multiple months and ... needles.
