This morion was hand-made from iron and brass according to an original around 1600.
The helmet is mainly a piece for decoration, but due to its size (inner size 20 cm / 7.8 inches wide, 23 cm / 9 inches long) it can well be worn as there are no rivets or screws inside.
The outer decorations are made of brass. Although the slits in the face protection are rather small they offered a good view, hard to believe!
Weight of helmet: 2,4 kg / 5.3 pounds, thickness of metal is 1,2 mm / 0.04 inches.
