Hand made from polished steel and bronze, this full sized helmet is a copy of the helmet found in the famous Sutton Hoo treasure.
"In 1939 archaeologists unearthed an astonishing Anglo-Saxon ship burial in Woodbridge, Suffolk; astonishing both for the state of preservation of the objects within the tomb, but also astonishing for the sheer rich quality of the artifacts. The burial goods from Sutton Hoo are remarkable - gold weapons and armour, inlaid ornaments, silver and tableware. "
Although called anglo-saxon this is most likely a reproduction of a helmet worn by a warrior who was in the ancient kingdom of Ost Angelnen, i.e. modern East Anglia
The helmet is wearable.
