The helmet is well preserved and the whole shape remains intact. Cone shaped helmets were made of leather and several rivets onto the outside of the leather joined each skin. It is exquisitely made and not only for the real purpose in the time of warfare, but it can also be used for the art work. Peony blossom and two phoenix decorate the helmet.
