About this work

Closed Burgundian morion with a lattice visor and helm flap. Probably a nineteenth-century variant of a seventeenth-century morion or a composite morion. The lattice visor on the hinged chin plate is not authentic and incorrectly attached. What is now the bottom of the visor was the top in the seventeenth century. The front half of the neck ring is missing.
