All rings are riveted 4 in 1. We call this type of weave RRR ( Round Ring Riveted).
There is an approx. 4.5 cm wide leather strap sewn to the top which is used to attach to a helmet, for example a bascinet or houndscull. The holes in the leather necessary for attachment must made made by the customer.
There is a zig zag design at the bottom. The aventail is large enough to cover the shoulders.
The coif is well sized and covers the shoulders. It has an authentic facial section.
This coif has also a triangular ventail which can be folded down.
The ventail is padded from inside, covered with leather and can be fixed with a leather lace.
This kind of coif was common during the high medieval period, e.g. worn by Normans and Crusaders.
