Delight in the German Gothic Schaller, 15th Century, 2mm Steel

German Gothic Schaller with folding visor, 15th century, 2 mm steel

In the 15th century, the helmet known as the schaller replaced the saucer hood . By mid-century, it had become one of the most widely used combat helmets throughout Europe. This type of helmet existed in many shapes and variations, 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 Schaller helmet we offer here is based on a German model dating from around 1480-1490. It is made of 2 mm thick steel and is therefore suitable for combat use. The one-piece molded helmet bell has a wide neck guard and a slight ridge or crest running along the crown. It is equipped with a movable, lockable visor secured with steel rivets. When closed, the folding visor leaves a viewing space approximately 1 to 1.5 cm wide and 18 cm long with the lower edge extended forward, ensuring sufficient visibility and air circulation. The blackened interior has an adjustable leather inlay secured with rivets, and the leather chin strap is fitted with a brass buckle.

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