Product Description
A brass and copper diving helmet reproduction with an aged patina
This diving helmet reproduction recreates the heavy copper and brass helmets worn by hard-hat divers in the early 1900s. It has a round front viewport, grilled side ports, bolted breastplate, air fittings, and a nameplate on the front of the collar.
The finish shows the hammered texture of copper and a weathered patina, with touches of green where brass and copper meet, like a helmet brought up from years at sea. Standard diving helmets were the working gear of salvage crews and naval divers, and this reproduction makes a striking centerpiece for a study, bar, or nautical collection.
