Barbute Helmet

Based on a 15th-century barbute from northern Italy, this helmet has decorative brass rivets encircling the top and steel rivets lining the edges. A short ridge accents the round skull.

Inside, the helmet has an adjustable, padded cotton canvas liner, and leather straps that secure it in place when tied under the chin.

A similar barbute resides in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
