拍品专文

This helmet is a rare surviving example of an early form. It is difficult to date it accurately due to a lack of existing comparative material. The most similar in shape is a helmet in the Hungarian National Museum in Budapest, although there are four others in the Museums in Russia. These five are all thought to date to the 12th/13th centuries.
