Description
Profile and three-quarter view of an armet, a type of fifteenth-century helmet made of several parts, some of them mobile. In this late fifteenth-century example, the part covering the nose and the eyes is made of only one piece and can be lifted with the right hand thanks to the small handle seen in B.
