This Chainmail Coif is a striking blend of functionality, durability, and medieval authenticity. Crafted from 9mm flat rings, 18 gauge, each ring is secured with round rivets for superior strength, ensuring the coif can withstand the rigors of reenactment combat, stage performance, or LARP. Unlike butted mail, riveted construction provides historical accuracy and greater resilience against splitting, making it ideal for serious reenactors and collectors.
The blackened finish not only adds a dramatic, battle-worn character but also helps resist rust, giving the coif both an aesthetic and functional advantage. What makes this piece truly stand out is the ornamental brass edging, each ring carefully worked into the border, creating a contrast against the darkened mail. This decorative trim shows the prestige of knights or high-ranking warriors who adorned their armor with precious metals as a sign of status and valor.
Designed to cover the head, neck, and shoulders, this coif offers reliable protection while maintaining excellent mobility. Its riveted construction ensures it can endure demanding use, while the brass trim elevates it beyond a mere armor piece into a statement of medieval artistry. Whether you’re stepping into a reenactment battlefield, performing on stage, or displaying it as part of your collection, this coif embodies both strength and grandeur
