DISCONTINUED, and only a few left - Bascinets or great bascinets were the first helmets to be worn with complete suits of plate armour.

This Great Bascinet features:

  • A grill over the eye slot
  • Numerous breather holes
  • Visor can open
  • Visor can be removed using the slide pins.
  • Spring loaded locking clip to hold the visor down.
  • Includes vervelles and leather strap for aventail.
  • Padded webbing is adjustable and has been authentically stitched to the helmet.
  • Chin strap.

Size: 670mm internal circumference (26")
Height: 280mm (11")
Weight: 3.3kg
Gauge: 1.6mm (16ga)

Combat ready handmade helmet comes with quilted padded webbing and leather chin strap already fitted. This is a very well designed and constructed piece. Unlike many other 'off the shelf' helmets available this one was actually designed for combat and is not just a thicker version of inferior collector helmets.

Combat score: 10 of 10

The great bascinet developed from the bascinet, a shorter, egg-shaped helmet, with the earlier mail protection for the throat and neck replaced with plates; the throat now being protected by an additional plate, while the back of the helmet's skull was extended to cover the neck. The face would have been protected by a detachable, rounded visor pierced with numerous holes for sight and ventilation.
This visor has hinges at either side, and the visor can be removed by pins.
