Sallet Made 1450-1470 Germany. In 15th-century Germany, the sallet was the most common helmet. This example is now missing a front visor that pivoted on two holes over the temples. Its deep, rounded form offered superior protection for the head and deflected blows away from the neck and shoulders. The design was so effective that sallets like this inspired the German helmet used in World War I and II.. Steel .

Bronze helmet of Corinthian type. Culture: Greek. Dimensions: 9 1/16 x 10 9/16 x 8 3/8in. (23 x 26.8 x 21.2cm). Date: ca. 650-600 B.C..The historian Herodotos mentions the Corinthian helmet as part of the equipment of the Greek hoplite (foot soldier). As a result, the predominant type of helmet, with a rounded calotte, small openings for the eyes, and a distinct nose-piece has been identified as such. Thanks to the large number of examples excavated at Olympia, the typological variety and development are well understood. This example, said to be from Olympia, is quite early, as indicated by its unarticulated edges and the small cutout in the middle of each side. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Gauntlet for the Right Hand ca. 1440-50 Italian This is part of a large find of medieval armor discovered in 1840 in the ruins of the fortress of Chalcis, on the Greek island of Euboea (then a Venetian colony called Negroponte). The fortress had been captured and destroyed by the Turks in 1470. Now divided largely between the Ethnological Museum, Athens, and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Chalcis hoard contains many rare and unusual elements of fourteenth- and fifteenth-century armor. Of particular importance are the variety of headpieces and the many fragments of brigandines (armor for the torso constructed of small plates riveted to layers of fabric), some of which retain portions of their original velvet covering. The Chalcis armor provides a unique picture of the armament used in the Aegean, one of the easternmost military outposts of the Venetian empire.. Gauntlet for the Right Hand 23262

It is thought that they were made locally by Saxon armorers in Dresden and Annaberg.Painted inside the backplate is the name Herr von Breitenbach.

Date: 15th-16th century.Purses of various shapes and sizes, carried by both men and women, were given descriptive terms in medieval inventories, such as bourse or poche à compartement. In the fifteenth century, purses with clasps of metal and loops on the rear which could be attached directly to the belt superseded the pouches which closed with drawstrings and hung from the belt. The clasp no doubt came into use to provide greater security for money or other valuables when the owner walked on crowded city streets.This velvet bag has a double pouch with an opening in the front section that still uses the older drawstring closure. The iron frame at the top is decorated with acorns, human heads, and lizards, some of which move to release catches for opening that frame. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
