The image shows a silver Barbute helmet by Pietro da Castello. The helmet is made of silver-colored metal, possibly steel, with a smooth surface that appears scratched and cracked in several areas and showing signs of wear. It has a rounded top that slopes downward to a point at the back, and the front of the helmet is shaped to fit the face. There are seven small rivets on the front. The eye opening is cut out on the right side. The helmet sits on a stand. The background is a plain beige color.
