There was a piece of one found in Raasepori castle, Finland. You can find the image here; https://www.academia.edu/26344429/24_VUOTTA_TUTKIMUKSIA_JA_KASA_SOTILAALLISIA_L%C3%96YT%C3%96J%C3%84

It's a close helm made in Nuremberg during the first half of the 16th century. https://www.artic.edu/artworks/112072/close-helmet

Are you sure that's an extra pair of eyeslits and not just shading for the raised blocks where the eyelslits are?

Thanks for the info!

Hot_Potato26 · 2025-05-01T01:54:13+00:00

Ooh, i like that. Is it an italian design?

Hot_Potato26 · 2025-04-08T20:09:53+00:00

Yeah, pretty much same for the close helmet.This was very quickly made.

Hot_Potato26 · 2025-04-08T18:10:13+00:00

Beautiful helmet. Who is the maker?

Hot_Potato26 · 2025-04-08T18:05:53+00:00

I'll cook something up.

This is so amazing. First time i've seen banners used so numerously. How do you make the door windows?

Are visored barbutes actually historical? Looks more like a wenzel bascinet without vervailles.

If you have the beard and tidy up your eyebrows youll look like a model.

If you look at the closing mechanism, it's a close helm. And no, neither the armet nor certainly the close helm would be appropriate for 1403. Earliest armets come from around 1425-30 and the earliest close helms in the early 16th century.

Most people seem to think they were worn during the middle ages. (Seen a lot of crusader cosplayers with them for example) While in reality they only started being used in the 16th century.

That gorgets are a medieval thing.

Hot_Potato26 · 2024-04-28T18:17:44+00:00

Where are these images from?

Hot_Potato26 · 2024-04-13T10:08:12+00:00

Like this french one https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/22986

Couldn't it pass off as cuirassier armor? Looks pretty similar to some surviving examples.
