This stunning open-faced was made by David Hewitt, master armourer at White Rose Armoury in the UK.
This sallet has never been used and is near new.
The proportions of this one are beautiful, and the medial ridge is graceful and well defined.
The sallet is brilliantly blued and polished, though currently slightly muted with a protective coat of Ren Wax to protect the finish. The sallet features brass rivets, edging, a linden leaf / heart detail at the tip of the tail, plume holder at the front, and authentic lost wax cast buckle.
It also comes complete with a suspended cloth liner. In its current form, it fits my 22.25 inch / 56.5 cm head with room to spare, therefore allowing for a larger head, thin arming cap, or using a thicker liner.
This piece was built in 2 mm / 14 g steel.
This piece is located in New Zealand, and will ship via NZ Post’s International Courier at cost with full insurance. (The online calculator suggests cost to the US, for example, would be about US$65.)
Price is US$395.
