14th Century Bascinet with Hinged Visor
In the 14th century, this bascinet was the preferred choice of heavily armoured knights. And no wonder! It offers excellent protection for the head, thanks in part to the ingenious ventilation and the option of folding up the perforated visor or even removing it completely.
The inside of the helmet is lined with quilted fabric to ensure maximum comfort even when worn for long durations. The helmet is designed for a head circumference of 58 cm to 61 cm. Its height is approximately 26.5 cm. The helmet base with closed visor measures about 22 × 17.5 cm. Vision is provided by 8 holes measuring approximately 9 × 8 mm.
Ten brass vervelles are affixed to the lower rim of the helmet bowl to attach an aventail to the helmet brim, sold separately. The inside of the helmet is coated with black lacquer to prevent corrosion.
Weighing approximately 3560 g, this helmet is a robust piece of armour that will make you feel confident and secure. The inner circumference of the helmet is approximately 68 cm and the eye holes are approximately 2 x 2 cm in size.
The shape of the helmet is masterfully designed to deflect blows in the best possible way, spreading their kinetic energy over as large an area as possible. Even the armourers in the 14th century knew how to do this!
