Discovered in 1938 at the Sutton Hoo excavation site in England, the Sutton Hoo helmet was recovered from the site of an Anglo-Saxon ship burial. Dating from the early 7th century, the helmet is believed to have belonged to King Raedwald, who died in 624 C.E., and is of great archeological importance. This reconstruction illustrates admirably the skill and decorative talent of the armorers of the period.Crafted in antiqued stainless steel, the helmet is fully wearable with a padded liner and is provided with a display stand detailing the helmet's history.
