Later versions were developed with a visor, though these were predominantly used by cavalry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe celata continued to be popular until the early 16th Century, where it was eventually replaced by the burgonet. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis version of the celata retains the early open face and the slight taper at the back of the helmet to protect the neck, and is made from 14 gauge steel. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandle it for yourself in our shop at:\u003cbr\u003e508 42 Ave SE\u003cbr\u003eCalgary, Alberta, Canada\u003cbr\u003eT2G 1Y6\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GDFB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46483209289894,"sku":"AB0332","price":224.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0881\/8278\/files\/20250705_102400.jpg?v=1751914656"},{"product_id":"gdfb-wedge-riveted-flat-ring-4-in-1-coif","title":"GDFB - Wedge Riveted Flat Ring 4-in-1 Coif","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis coif from Get Dressed For Battle features a strong wedge riveted European 4-in-1 construction, with a central riveted ring containing four solid punched rings.
