A beautiful cuirassier's helmet dating: 1876 provenance: Kingdom of Italy, Nickel-plated iron skull (plated at a later date to conceal damaged parts and repairs), with gilt brass mounts. The crest lacks the grotesque mask and the mane; embossed stars along the sides and an olive with the monogram "VE" for Victor Emmanuel II (likely cast). The star frieze features a silver Savoy cross on gilt rays (probably of a later period). Large gilt scaled chin-straps, with cheek-pieces featuring a stamped star. Fine German-silver rims riveted to the skull. Green leather-lined visors. Brown leather segmented liner. Complete with its white and red feathers.
