A NORTH EUROPEAN BURGONET, POSSIBLY GERMAN, EARLY 17TH CENTURY formed of a rounded two-piece skull joined medially along the apex of its high roped comb, projecting forward to an acutely-pointed peak, flanged outwards at the nape to receive an obtusely-pointed one-piece neck-guard and cut out at each side to receive a missing cheek-piece, now represented only by the proximal ends of its hinge, the main edges decorated with plain inward turns accompanied, in the case of the neck-guard, by a recessed border, (heavily corroded overall with significant losses at the centre and right of the peak, the apex of the comb and the right of the neck-guard, and some deformation throughout)
