Medieval barbute helmet is the Italian variant of the medieval bascinet helmet. This is a hand-crafted helmet made out of polished 16 gauge steel.  It is a barbute style helmet, which is visorless and was typical of 15 century Italian helmet design. Barbute type helmets can come with T-shaped or Y-shaped openings, but will always cover most of the face. Its construction is very similar to the types of old helmets (e.g., Corinthian helmets) and may have been influenced by renewed interest in ancient history, the arts and renaissance. This reconstruction by us was developed after an original Italian Bascinet dated about 1470.
