Sutton Hoo helmet on a stand. High-quality replica based on the model produced by the British Museum. Sold in 2 hours
The Sutton Hoo helmet is an Anglo-Saxon helmet dating from the late 6th or early 7th century, discovered in 1939 during excavations at the Sutton Hoo archaeological site in southeastern England. It belongs to the so-called "Dark Ages," a period from which little material had been recovered prior to these 1939 excavations.
Its recovery provided valuable insight into the type of helmet worn by the warrior elites of that era.
Originally found in over 500 fragments, its reconstruction is a remarkable feat that allows us to admire the richness of headgear from this little-known period.
While many replicas of this iconic piece circulate online, we have never before held a copy of such high quality.
Note the fully chased crest and the meticulous attention paid to every detail.
This helmet is wearable, fitting sizes up to at least 59 without issue.
The display stand—which features an explanatory inscription—has unfortunately sustained a few knocks, but the helmet itself is in excellent condition; it bears a light patina, giving it the look of a genuine antique. It has been part of a private collection for over a decade. A rare find!
