A TIBETAN IRON-PLATED MILITARY HELMET, 19TH C.
A fine example of a military helmet made of iron shells and plates. The helmet consists of a hemispherical skull made from multiple panels riveted together, a short brim at the front, and a finial knob surmounting the top. Supporting plates riveted over the seams and exterior create a pleasing design and reinforce the helmet. Attached to the rim are segmented lamellae plates connected by cords of leather through piercings to cover the ears and the back of the neck. This helmet originated in Tibet but was also popular in China, Mongolia, Korea, and Japan.
Dimensions: H: 16 in., (40.5 cm.)
Condition: Very good with some patina.
