			Magnificent piece ! Thanks for the info. I do love these 2 piece Close Helmets. Maybe the first ones were made like this with a line of rivets rather than folded along the ridge. I have been told that they first appeared round about 1560-70 in France.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	It has a lovely form. If it was mine I don't know if I would have it restored with a gorget or just leave it as it is.  |
