15e eeuwse sallet, zwart, 1.6 mm Baardolie en verzorging However when a battle startedThis sallet is based on a 15th century original made in the German style. Sallets like this appeared between 1450 and 1460 and were worn throughout Europe by both infantry and aristocracy. The visor of this sallet is crafted in the late Gothic style, and the neck guard consists of several lames to allow greater freedom of movement. The German sallet may have developed from a combination of influences from the Italian sallet and the German kettle hats
