A LITLE HISTORY
This barbute archery helmet is an exact and faithful replica, made identically to the originals found in excavations, manufactured with the same methods, using only steel and leather, as in the Middle Ages.
It is a piece for collectors and enthusiasts who cannot afford authentic archaeological pieces.
Also ideal for historical reenactors.
The 15th-century archer barbute is a distinctive armor piece, emblematic of this period. Designed mainly for protection while offering good visibility, it is often made of steel and features a trapezoidal or U-shaped form.
The barbute covers the head, the face being partially or fully protected by a grille or vault. Its design incorporates an opening for the eyes, often reinforced for visibility and safety.
The face is generally protected by a metal piece that conforms to the shape of the face, leaving an opening for the mouth.
The barbute is often associated with archers and the late medieval army, particularly in Italian and French regions.
It is lighter and less bulky than other more complete helmets, allowing greater mobility.
The design also allows for effective ventilation, which is essential during prolonged combat. It is often worn with a gorget or collar to protect the neck.
The barbute could be adorned with engravings or motifs, indicating the wearer’s rank or wealth. Its use spread among archers because it combined protection and agility. Its style evolved over time, incorporating innovative design elements.
Today, the barbute remains a symbol of the medieval warrior, illustrating functional simplicity paired with medieval aesthetics.
