Upper helmet of the Kornburg Rieters, Nuremberg around 1375, 1.6 mm steel
-Suitable for combat -

This large upper helmet is a replica of a late medieval funerary helmet of the Rieter von Kornburg family from All Saints' Church in Kleinschwarzenlohe.

The Rieter von Kornburg family (=Knights of Kornburg) was a patrician family documented to have lived in Nuremberg from 1361. The helmet dates from around the same period, around 1375, and was probably made by a Nuremberg armourer. It is now on display in the Germanic National Museum (GNM) in Nuremberg.

Our reconstruction is hand-made from 1.6 mm thick steel sheet. The steel parts are connected with brass rivets, as are the elaborate and decorative brass applications on the front. By the way, they are only painted on the original hull.

The helmet has an unriveted spring steel chain (braided type btw), a comfortable, riveted padded entry and a cowhide chin strap with a brass buckle.

Available in two sizes: m and l.

Details:
- Material: 1.6mm steel
- Chain brace made of elastic steel rings without riveting (btw), inner diameter 8 mm
- Incl. padded fabric insert with cowhide chin strap
- Finish: blued and lightly oiled
