Closed Burgonet ca. 1630; bottom front and back collar lames, later restorations French Helmets with a faceted bowl surmounted by a pointed comb are characteristic of French examples worn during the reign of Louis XIII (1610-43). The somber dark steel surfaces are relieved by traces of original gilding on the plume-holder at the back, the baluster-shaped finial at the apex, and the unusual baluster rivet heads on the buffe and collar. The helmet's large size and unusual type of falling buffe with slotted sights are noteworthy. (The bottom collar lame at the front and back is a modern restoration.). Closed Burgonet 26525
