Peter, Steve, thank you , interesting info! B.loree, yes, I also suspect that this this helmet is made out of cork, it sure has that typical cork smell :) More photos:

John, I have this photo of the interior, I will take more photos tomorrow in the morning and post them here. I can not find any makers mark.

Thank you, Wojtek. I think too that it looks good - brass fitting are of high quality. Interesting design with the canvas cover, it got that tropical look. Unfortunately, there is very little information about Columbian pickelhaubes.

Hello everybody! I have just purchased a Colombian officer (?) pickelhaube, would you please help me to ID this helmet? Officer? Cavalry, Infantry, Guards? Thank you!

wrong thread, sorry!
