By the way, isn't the word armature also the term used by sculptors for the wire frame they sometimes construct to hold whatever materials they may lay upon the armature to flesh out their forms?
I suppose a lot of you know that packaging on all products in Canada is bilingual. When you go bra shopping, boxes labelled underwire in English are labelled armature in French. This causes my mother and me no end of giggles!![]()
It sure feels like "armature" is a better word for it sometimes!
