    Description – 
    The Norman Nasal Helmet was used by the army men of William the Conqueror during the Battle of Hastings in 1066 against England. The Normans were descendants of Vikings who settled in the North of France. They were fierce warriors and great archers, mounted on horses. The shape of the helmet was intentionally designed to provide a clear and panoramic view of the battlefield. The warriors wore these helmets on a woolen or felt cap to provide comfortable padding on the head. The shape of the skull, ridged in the center, provided adequate protection against the blows of arrows and maces. The helmets were practical but provided less protection against attacks. The charm of this helmet faded when other provinces of Europe began developing closed helmets for better protection.

    Description – 
    The Sugarloaf Great Helm was primarily designed for better fitting and stability of the piece over the head of the knight during battle. On one hand, this model helped reduce the intensity of blows on the head of the warrior but the sides became more vulnerable due to its fitting shape. The model follows the fundamental design elements of a great helm in terms of features. These helmets were generally worn with a mail coif or padding underneath for comfort and stability.

  • Templar great helm is a reenactment helmet for medieval era enthusiasts

    Templar Great Helm | Medieval Crusader Helmet

    Price range: $95.00 through $175.00

    Key Points – 
    – Handcrafted in sheet metal
    – Leather liner on the inside
    – 3mm thick vegetable-tanned leather chinstrap
    – Brass D-shape buckle
    – Black paint on the inside

    Description – 
    The Great Helm Templar was designed as an evolved form of the bucket/barrel-shaped Great Helm and is widely known as the Templar. The predecessor of this helmet was highly vulnerable to direct head blows. Although the rim of the helmet was strong, the flat top was weak, and hence, in this design, the tilted head plate reduced the risk of fatal injuries or death. The overall design and décor elements remained intact but the eye slits were elongated to increase the field of vision. This shape also fits better on the head of the knight because of a tapering top that follows the curve of the human skull.

    The XV Century Barbut Helmet is inspired by the Italian Barbuta, whose original artefact was found in Milano. The helmet is currently displayed in the Metropolitan Museum and has been displayed in several other exhibitions. Our team has attempted to replicate a close match to the original artifact, except for the rivets on the cheek guards. Many types of Barbut helmets were found in the province, but we have recreated the one believed to have been discovered in the 1460s. The helmet has a T-shaped visor. Some inscriptions were also found on the helmet that denoted the maker’s mark; our helmet does not have any inscriptions.
