Helmet
This week, on the occasion of June 26, Azerbaijan Armed Forces Day, we'll discover more about the samples of armor and weapon preserved within the museum collection.
Take a closer look at the precious sample of artistic metalwork, the helmet of the late 16th - early 17th century. The skillfully crafted helmet stands out with its perfect top shape and the graceful gold decor in the form of stripes filled with delicate floral ornaments applied by engraving, notching, and hammering techniques.
