Product description
From the mid-11th century, nasal helmets like this one were made from a single piece. This made them sturdier, but also more expensive than the spangenhelm, which was constructed from multiple parts. These nasal helmets were universally conical until the early 12th century. Nasal helmets of this type remained in use across Europe until the end of the 12th century. In medieval manuscripts, nasal helmets like these are notably always depicted in combination with a chainmail coif.
Medieval helmets like this are shown on the Bayeux Tapestry, and knights wore them during the Crusades. This type of helmet was very popular because it offered good visibility while still protecting the nose and face with its long nasal piece.
