Great Sallet
The Great Sallet by artist not specified is a steel helmet with a conical top and a wide, curved brim that covers the face. The helmet has two large, curved cutouts for the eyes and a wide, flat nasal guard. Two large, curved cheek plates are attached on either side, covering the jaw and ears. The entire helmet appears to be made of a single piece of steel with a rough, weathered texture and a dark gray color. The helmet is shown on a stand, with a plain gray background.
