This helmet is directly inspired by several 13th-century sources and, for example, is very similar to many of the helmets featured in the Maciejowzki Bible. The PURE BRASS cross riveted to the front of the helmet makes it look straight out of the Middle Ages. Its flat top is typical of that period, which evolved into the more pointed, sugarloaf-shaped helmet.
