介绍（中）	这对整体镀金的罗埃尔马刺饰有丰富的蚀刻和搪瓷装饰，以花朵、树叶和武器奖杯为特色。甚至树枝的内侧也刻着植物卷轴和鞋跟上的怪诞面具。这种装饰与17世纪初法国制造的一些盔甲相匹配在17世纪上半叶，绅士的时尚潮流是即使在非骑马的情况下也要穿靴子和马刺，包括跳舞或在宫廷里走动。当时，马刺不仅仅是马术工具，而是男性的珠宝首饰，这些金匠也在制作盔甲和武器。它们的装饰有时是为了与剑柄、主人的一般装备和马钉相匹配。这些时髦的配饰也是绅士地位的重要标志，有时还是被资产阶级复制的。这种时尚在17世纪中期后逐渐消失。
介绍（英）	This pair of rowel spurs, gilded overall, is richly adorned with an etched and enameled decoration, featuring flowers, leaves, and trophies of arms. Even the inside of the branches is etched with vegetal scrolls and a grotesque mask on the heel. This type of decoration matches some armors made in France in the early 17th century. In the first half of the 17th century, the fashion trend for gentlemen was to wear boots and spurs even in non-riding circumstances, including for dancing or walking around at court. Spurs became then more than equestrian tools, but pieces of male jewelry often enriched by the same goldsmiths also working on armor and weapons. Their decoration was sometimes intended to match the sword hilt and the general outfit and horse tack of their owner. These trendy accessories were also a significant mark of status for gentlemen, sometimes nonetheless copied by the bourgeoisie. This fashion progressively disappeared after the mid 17th century.
