	Size:680mm circ, 290mm height Weight:1.63kg Gauge: 1.4mm. (16 gauge) This Barbute helmet circa 1460 is a prime example of the true genius of early Italian helm smiths! The Barbute style helmet provided visibility so crucially needed in battle while providing protection of the neck. The Barbute was developed in the late 14th century as a helmet for footsoldiers, and was widely used in Italy. It is probably a development of the Bascinet, usually designed to be worn without a mail aventail. The Barbute was common in Italy from the last quarter of the 14th century to the last quarter of the 15th century Price:  -	QTY:
