Description –
Weisenau Mainz helmet is a Roman army Imperial helmet. The original artifact of the helmet is showcased in the Schaffhausen Museum, Switzerland. A copy of the same helmet is also showcased in the Romano-Germanic Central Museum (RGZM), Mainz. The helmet is similar to other Imperial and Gallic helmet as mentioned in the Axel Guttman collection. The original helmet is believed to be constructed of bronze metal with a tinned finish. The embossed lines at the back of the helmet and the top of the bowl are a feature on nearly all the imperial helmets. The neck guard of this particular helmet is smaller and more decorated as compared to the others. The cheek guards are also similar; the only difference is the use of brass sockets for enamel decoration.

Some specifications of the product

The Weisenau Mainz Helmet replica is made of a 1.2 mm-thick iron sheet metal. The crest holder clip, the socket bowls, and the rings are made of brass. All the attachments of the helmet are riveted using pure brass rivets. The helmet is tinned on the outside and painted on the inside to prevent rusting. The tinning on the outside of Weisenau Mainz Helmet is done by hand; it requires regular maintenance.

A very nice helmet. A real speciality with the tin plated finish, as if it were silver plated. I am very satisfied! It will serve well in the Cohors I Ulpia Pannoniorum team.

I ordered from Hungary, I modified the cheek guards and they did a great job. The end result is amazing. During the helmet making, they constantly communicated with me about the progress of the process. Excellent team, I can only recommend them to everyone
