"A warrior who cannot see the spear-thrust is already dead; the spectacle guard gives your eyes defence without blinding you to the shield-wall." Osric, Keeper of the Hearth & Forge
Rooted in the historical armour worn across Scandinavia between the ninth and eleventh centuries, this spectacle helmet provides the iconic silhouette of the northern raider. Handcrafted from solid 16-gauge mild steel, the skull is shaped to withstand the clatter of LARP weapons while serving as an imposing centrepiece for display. Its defining ocular plate shields the upper face while preserving the clear peripheral sightlines demanded in fast-paced combat.
Suspended from the lower rim hangs a broad camail formed of 16-gauge steel wire wound into 10 mm butted rings. This mail drape turns aside blows aimed at the throat and upper shoulders, granting fluid mobility when shifting stance or turning to face flanking foes. Handcrafted individually, each helmet carries minor variations in finish that reflect honest smithing rather than mechanical stamping.
Inside, an adjustable genuine leather suspension liner secures the helm comfortably upon the crown, accommodating most adult sizes. If you favour an arming cap beneath your iron, be sure to measure your head while wearing that padded cap to guarantee a proper fit. Arriving dressed in a protective film of oil to deter rust during transit, this helm requires only a clean wipe before service. Keep it dry after campaign, and treat the steel with periodic oiling to maintain its martial defence for seasons to come.
