Imagine stepping into the valiant world of the 13th-14th Century Great Helm, a classic piece of medieval armor reimagined through expert craftsmanship. This magnificent helm is lovingly HANDMADE from 18-gauge MILD STEEL, ensuring durability without sacrificing comfort. The interior is thoughtfully lined with high-quality faux leather, promoting a snug fit while enhancing comfort during battles or reenactments. With an approximate inner circumference of 70cm (67cm with the liner), it’s designed to accommodate most head sizes, offering an inclusive fit ideal for both seasoned knights and newcomers ready to take on their heroic roles.
Standing majestically at 32 cm tall, this helm not only covers your head but also creates an unforgettable presence. The inner dimensions provide ample room, measuring 21 cm at ear level and about 24.5 cm from front to back at eye level, while the eye slits, measuring 9.1×1.1 cm, offer an unobstructed view of your surroundings while maintaining an authentic medieval aesthetic. You can rest assured that your helm will stay securely in place during dramatic sword fights, thanks to a robust chin strap complete with a brass buckle.
This helmet isn’t just a feast for the eyes; it is steeped in history. By the end of the 13th century and the dawn of the 14th century, helmets like this one evolved to provide comprehensive protection during chaotic melee combat. Unlike older designs that emphasized frontal defense, the Great Helm enveloped the head in protective metal, allowing knights to engage in battles with confidence, knowing they were shielded from all sides. This helm carries that legacy, making it not only a stylish choice but also a symbol of the resilience and bravery of those who donned it.
But it’s not just for history enthusiasts. Whether you’re gearing up for a LARP event, participating in a Renaissance fair, or simply adding to your collection of historical artifacts, this Great Helm transforms you from a spectator into a noble warrior of the Middle Ages. Its attention to detail, including the 20-gauge, PURE BRASS Cross rivets adorning the helm, ensures that you turn heads wherever your adventures take you.
Upon unboxing your Great Helm, you will notice a protective coat of oil that guards against corrosion. This layer can easily be wiped off with any oil remover or a dry cloth, ensuring that your helmet remains in pristine condition while you prepare to take on your next quest.
In summary, the 13th-14th Century Great Helm is not just an accessory; it is your ticket to becoming part of a timeless tale of chivalry and adventure. Enjoy the perfect blend of style, comfort, and historical authenticity with this remarkable piece of equipment. Equip yourself with this majestic helm and confidently step into the spotlight of your next medieval spectacle!
