13th Century Great Helm / Pot Helm 16 gauge

This Great Helmet / Pot Helmet is inspired directly by several 13th-century sources and, for example, is closely similar to many of the helmets seen in the Maciejowzki bible. The PURE BRASS Cross riveted to the helm’s front makes it look straight from the Middle Ages! Its flat top is typical of that period that evolved into the more pointed sugarloaf helm. So make yourself an elite knight or character in your next medieval event with this historically inspired piece of art!

This helmet is handmade from 16 gauge MILD STEEL with a polished finish. The height is about 33 cm, the inner depth from front to back at eye level measures about 22.5 cm, the inner width at ear level is about 21 cm, and the eye slits are about 10.5 cm long and 1.6 cm wide at the end and 1.4 cm wide at the outer end. This helmet has an inner circumference of 72 cm (before the padded liner attachment). If you desire to wear an additional padded cap, then measure your head circumference while wearing it. (The padded liner already attached inside the helmet is usually enough for most adult male heads). Weighs about 3 Kg and 390 grams.

Note: This product is carefully coated with a layer of oil when packaged that acts as a temporary (protective) layer against corrosion (rust), which can easily be wiped off using any oil remover or even a dry cloth.
