Questions about the product 12 brass ferrules for cymbal covers

What is the purpose of the brass vervelles on a cymbal hood, and how many are included in the set?

The brass vervelles are used to attach a chainmail aventail to a bascinet. The set contains 12 pieces.
What material are the vervelles made of and how are they attached to the bascule hood?

The vervelles are made of high-quality brass. To attach them, holes are drilled into the lower edge of the cymbal hood, in which the vervelles are fixed as rivets, and then the rings of the chain collar are threaded through the eyelets.
What are the dimensions of the brass vervelles and what other types of armor projects besides bascinets are they suitable for?

The brass vervelles measure approximately 19 x 8 x 8 mm, with a pin (staple) diameter of about 4.65 mm. Besides attaching chainmail to bascinets, they are also suitable for other plate armor projects and for repairs to various helmet types.
Which historical period is most authentically represented by these brass vervelles, and are they robust enough for the high stresses of active stage combat or reenactment?

These brass vervelles most authentically represent the 14th and early 15th centuries, the heyday of the bascinet in the Late Middle Ages. As robust fastening elements for the helmet aventail, they are specifically designed for the demands of historical reenactment and active combat demonstrations, reliably withstanding the stresses encountered there.
