Product description

The helmet is a battle-ready replica of a 10th-century Viking helmet excavated from a tumulus in Gjermundbu, Norway. The original was broken into nine pieces and subsequently reconstructed. It is now exhibited at the Statens Historical Museum in Oslo. The `glasses` protect both the eyes and the nose, whilst the chainmail affords the neck a flexible protection.

The helmet is constructed from 2 mm thick steel. It is unpolished and darkened in the manner of the original. The chainmail neck protection consists of riveted round mail rings. The helmet is well-suited to a head circumference of up to 62 cm. It weighs approximately 2.9 kg.
