Helmet of eight plates in the Korean style information


Korean Helmet of eight plates in the Korean style, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.

Helmet of eight plates in the Korean style (Chinese: 朝鲜式八板头盔) is a helmet produced between 14th and 16th centuries in either Korean peninsula or Mongolia.[note 1] This helmet consists of eight plates made of iron.[1] It is speculated that this helmet style was spread to Korean peninsula from the Tibetan regions. Helmets with similar structure can be seen in Tibet, while both versions of the helmet are made of iron and leather. But Korean-style eight plated helmets are distinguished from those of Tibetan style by its relatively smaller size. Usually a Tibetan-style eight plated helmet measures 21–22 cm in height. But this Korean style helmet measures only 13 cm in height. Currently displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, the Korean style helmet measures 24.3 cm in length and 21 cm in width and 1065.9 g in weight.[2]
