Gift German Gothic Sallet with Long Neck Guard, 15th Century, 2mm Steel

German Gothic Schaller with extended neck guard, 15th century, 2mm steel



In the 15th century the schaller helmet replaced the saucer hood . By the middle of the century it had become one of the most widely used combat helmets throughout Europe. This type of helmet existed in many forms and variants, from simple to elaborate, open or peaked, with more or less pronounced neck protection, etc., and was especially popular in Italy ( celata ), Germany, France ( salade ) and England ( sallet ) are very popular.



The hand-forged, wearable Gothic helmet we offer here is made of 2 mm thick steel and is therefore suitable for show combat. The one-piece moulded helmet hood has a long neck guard and a slight crest or ridge running along the crown. It is equipped with a movable visor which is fixed with steel rivets. When closed, the folding visor leaves a viewing space of approximately 1.5 cm wide and 17 cm long with the lower edge extended forward, ensuring sufficient visibility and air circulation.

The blackened interior has an adjustable leather insert secured with rivets (the neck guard is also lined with leather). The leather chin strap is fitted with a steel buckle.



This late medieval visor helmet will make your transformation into a noble knight simply perfect and is of course also an excellent decorative addition to any helmet collector's treasure trove.
