Vers la fin de 15ème siècle les Salades ont connu une transformation dans leur forme. Ce modèle est basé sur une pièce appelée A72 de la Wallace Collection datée de 1520 et dont l'origine est le nord de l'Italie. Cette salade, qui a probablement été utilisée avec un hausse-col , appartenait à la collection du comte de Nieuwerkerke et a été acquis par Sir Richard Wallace en 1871. En plus de tout ceci a été peint par Viollet-le-Duc dans ses «Châteaux et guerre au Moyen Age".

Near the end of 15th century sallets began a transformation into the shapes known as "transitional" which have arrived to our days with impressive pieces that show the reluctancy of this effective design to just disappear. Specifically, this sample is based on a piece known as A72 from the Wallace Collection dated on 1520 and which construction is attributed to be a job from the north of Italy. This sallet, that probably was used with a gorget without bevor, belonged to the collection of the Count of Nieuwerkerke and was acquired by Sir Richard Wallace in 1871. Besides all of this was painted by Eugène Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc on its “Castles and Warfare in the Middle Ages”. A celebrity of transitional sallet.
