介绍（中）	这根镀金的马刺整体雕刻有植物装饰，两侧用哥特式字体刻着法语单词BIEN（好）。一个方形的、镀金的、饰有champlevé珐琅的断扣小教堂与这根马刺有关，但不属于它。 1400年左右，西欧的罗威尔马刺脖子的长度开始增加，有些例子在15世纪甚至延伸到骑手的脚那么长。在这个时期，升高的战马鞍和非常特殊的骑行方式，长马镫皮和向前延伸的腿，导致骑手的脚从马的侧面移开。因此，这些长脖子使它们更容易接近，而不必干扰骑手的位置。马刺不仅是必要的马术工具，也是骑士身份的象征之一，也是骑士被封为爵士期间赠送的物品之一。
介绍（英）	This gilded spur is engraved overall with vegetal decoration, as well as with the French word BIEN (good) in gothic script on both sides. The square chape of a broken buckle, gilded and decorated with champlevé enamel is associated with this spur, but does not belong to it. Around 1400, the length of the rowel spurs’ necks started to increase in Western Europe, some examples extending even as long as the rider’s foot in the 15th century. At this period, the elevated war saddles and the very specific riding style, with long stirrup leathers and legs extended forward, had the consequence of taking away the rider’s feet from the horse’s flank. Thus, these long necks gave them easier access without having to disturb the rider’s position. As well as being necessary equestrian instruments, spurs were one of the symbols of knightly status, and were among the objects given to the knight during his knighting.
