Rivered mail aventail

An aventail is a flexible curtain of mail attached to the skull of a helmet that extends to cover the throat, neck and shoulders. This chain mail aventail is made of round rings with untreated finish and round rivet heads. Every single ring is riveted by hand. It is made in 4 in 1 pattern. The lower edge has a zig zag shape. This type of chain armour is called RRR (Round Ring Riveted). An approx. 4.5cm wide leather strap is sewn to the top of the aventail. You can attach the aventail to your helmet by means of it. Suitable helmet types are e.g. nasal helmets, bascinets and houndskulls. The only thing you have to do by yourself are the holes in the leather strap. More information...
