Aventail is a helmet element in the form of chain mail (sometimes a lamellar was used instead of chain mail), framing the helmet along the lower edge. It covered the neck, shoulders, nape and sides of the head; in some cases, chest and lower face.

Aventail was found mainly in Russia or in eastern countries.

Aventail can be open or cover the lower part of the face and neck in front.
