German spiked helmet Pickelhaube Prussia M1894 (brass )

I am selling a handcrafted copy of this German helmet in original size.
This style of helmet was used by "Kurassiers" and the German chancellor Bismarck was the most prominent politician to wear a silver plated one.

We made this helmet for decoration or theatrical use, because original pieces are almost unobtainable even at very high prices.

The helmet weighs approx. 1 kg (2 lbs.) including all parts, it is made of brass and has a leather liner.
It is 32 cms.(12.1/2 inches) high (including spike)and fits head size up to 61cms. (7.1/2 inch UK) when liner and chin strap are properly set.

Buyer to pay p & p in the U.K. : £ 12.50, insurance optional (up to £ 250: £ 2.00).

Payment by personal cheque or directly into my Lloyds Bank account. Please note: I cannot ship before your cheque is cleared.

Shipping to the US is either by economy airmail £ 20.00 or premium airmail £ 33.50 plus insurance (optional) £ 2.00.

Payments in US $ can be easily made into my Paypal account or by personal check in US $.

The helmet stand 42 cms (17") high with 25 cms x 25 cms base (10" x 10") made from polished hardwood (shown on bottom photo) can be shipped for £ 16.00 together with the helmet.
