Product description

At the beginning of the 14th century, kettle hats like this one with sloping brims began to appear. As metalworking techniques improved, it became more cost-effective to produce kettle hats from a single piece. The brim of the kettle hat became more sloped, allowing it to deflect projectiles from above. This reduced the impact on the helmet and the head. This type of helmet was so effective that even aristocrats wore it. The brim offered protection against downward strikes and projectiles. The helmet provided an excellent field of vision, good hearing, and optimal protection.

Kettle hats like this were worn throughout Europe in the 15th century. One original is part of the collection of the Hofjagd- und Rüstkammer in Vienna.
