Product Details
Large 14th - 15th century dagged aventail made from flat ring, round rivetted Maille. It will fit most of our helmets but may need adjusting by the buyer.
The attached leather band is 54 cm long and the width of the mail is 33cm from edge of the leather band to the base of the dagged edges is 33 cm.
Some of the 14th/early 15th century helmets that we stock come with attached vervailles (metal lugs with holes in them). The buyer needs to cut small holes in the leather band that line up with the vervailles. The aventail can be held in place by a thin copper or brass wire that runs through the holes in the vervailles (even a small diameter cord or leather thong will do). If your helmet does not have vervailles then you can drill a row of fine holes about 1 cm apart around the rim of the helmet and sew the leather band directly to the helmet.
