Nasal Helmet with Celtic Motifs, Antiqued Steel

Steel Nasal Helmet with Celtic Motifs, Antiqued

The cone-shaped nasal helmet we offer here is crafted from 1.2 mm steel and finished with an antiqued, dark patina. It is equipped, with an approx. 3 mm thick brown leather chin strap with brass buckle. The zoomorphic eyebrows and nose are made of antiqued brass and fixed onto the base of the bowl with round rivets. The helmet's interior is fitted with a leather liner.

This helm is not an authentic reproduction of an original historical example but rather a fine Fantasy piece of Celtic, Norse and Norman inspiration. While its overall shape (conical bowl, nose guard) heavily reminds of the early and high medieval Norman helmets, the distinctive animal-shaped brows and nose are modeled on Celtic/Norse patterns. Especially the knotwork serpents or dragons are a recurring motif in Celtic and Norse/Viking art.

An ideal accessory for LARP, fancy dress, stage or TV/film, this fully wearable helmet will make your transformation into a proud swordsman or archer just perfect. Of course, it will also make a great, decorative addition to any helmet collector's treasure chamber.
