Currently ships with a Grand Finial - this could be Type 1 or Type 2 depending upon what is available in the workshop. The finial is not 100% perfect but it will add an extra level of protection from the elements and is way up high  - so any imperfections are out of sight.

Conical or Bell-Shaped canvas tent. No ropes required, it is quick to erect and very durable and sturdy in all weather conditions. Tall enough to stand in when getting changed and small enough to easily carry when packed. This tent can sleep up to 4 adults in a squeeze.

2.2m tall and 3.2m wide (diameter) at the base. These are all hand made so variations do occur but size can also vary due to weather, terrain and age of tent. It has a door flap which can roll up and by tightly lashed down in poor weather.

The conical/bell shaped tent is a timeless design and can be seen in many sketches and paintings throughout history. They would have been a common sight among Henry VIII campaigns through to French Infantry of the 18thC. A similar design was also used much earlier by nomadic tribes and also later as in the patented early American Sibley tent. The popularity of this design is possibly related to the fact that no ropes are needed and therefore are easier to move around within a large encampment. Some of the earliest examples of this style are 9thC CE Carolingian pictorial evidence shows them topped with a cross. There is also early depictions of them being used in Hussite encampments mixed in with bell tents.

Original packed size 40cm x 50cm x 15cm but will vary depending on how you fold/roll it. Approx 8kg.
