Hi AllI have been trying to collate and typify what an "English" sallet might look like. By that I mean either a lid made in England or imported for the English market.
As there are relatively few surviving pieces of artwork then I have turned to trying to list funerary achivements, and have come up with about six examples that are either existing in English churches or are now in museum collections and were previously in Churches, or were found in England.
I am trying to narrow it down to pieces that could have almost certainly been in the country during the later 15th C, not pieces imported later by collectors.
Are there any more that I may be missing? Anybody know of any that may be in private collections etc and have an English provenance?
Mike
