A GERMAN BLACK & WHITE MORION C.1570-80
The balance of the field is blackened, the transversely stippled brim polished in the "white" as well. The curved brim upturned in fine sweeping terminals. Black and white armor was produced in Germany and used both domestically and exported.
|
The brim, etched in strapwork filled with scrolling foliage is struck with a makers mark. The burgonet was the helmet of choice for military use throughout Germany.
|
This elegant helmet is of a form known as a Spanish morion which derives from the rule of Northern Italy by the Spanish Hapsburgs. The tall skull terminates in a “peak stalk”
