Miniature Sugarloaf Helmet
The Sugar Loaf helmet, so called because of its similarity in shape to the traditional "Sugar Loaves" that sugar was traditionally sold in, was a later variant of the Great Helm and was used throughout the 13th and 14th Centuries.
This style of helmet saw use in many famous battles of the period and was also worn by Crusaders. The domed top was much better at deflecting blows than the flat-topped Great Helms.
The Miniature Sugar Loaf Helmet is handcrafted in steel and brass and comes complete with wooden stand.
