I'd like to say, do something, man, when everything is falling apart here.

I'm not sure what regiment they belonged to.

My new love today arrived from Germany.

The material used is water with vinegar in a ratio of 10:1,a piece of leather and a carpenter's squeeze.Pickelhaube moisten from the inside with a solution of water and vinegar and squeeze the material.After a few days the skin forms.

I started the work by taking the object apart and cleaning the wappen,which was painted with gold paint used in the restoration of mirror frames and paintings.Such paintings are 99% from France and I call them French repairs.Each country has its own specific repairs that need to be corrected.

Sometimes I wonder what people have in their heads? The canopy riveted,and the rest of the repairs were done with polyurethane foam.Sometimes it takes more time to remove the repairs of previous owners.

I am looking for information about this item. What regiment was it assigned to?

In the last photo, Polish children dressed as lancers

Epolettes of a child lancer of the Order of Calatrava.The Order of Calatrava became, unlike the confraternity, a true order whose members took vows of chastity, poverty and obedience as Cistercian monks. The item was made by El Corte Inglés,which was a small store on Calle Preciados in Madrid...

The helmet is made entirely of felt, including the visors. This is the first time I've seen a helmet made this way.

I have had this item for many years and they have never been disassembled. All the hardware is silver with tobacco smoke. The belt with scales is also silver. If the belt were gold, it would be pioneer, but I don't know where to assign it?

These are my first boots for a lancer.You can see that they were repaired sewing in the era,but it does not bother me especially that I managed to buy them for 92 euros in an auction.Tomorrow I will make small repairs and conserve the item.

The item was in poor condition and a week I patched all the holes.Now it looks a little better.

The first stage of straightening.For the skin, I used water with vinegar,and for the second object, water alone.

The parts were assembled haphazardly for presentation purposes. The cost of all the parts including the leather helmet in the photos was 520 euros. I think it was a good price.

Maybe they are veterans ?

Hello everyone.Today I received a package from a friend from the USA. There is a decal on the helmet on the front, but I don't know what military unit it was assigned to.Please help.

I really enjoy repairing these covers.I made up two bottoms.

Many of you would trash it,but I will give it a chance for a new life.

Four people are bidding,and the price is about 7 euros.I do not know whether to laugh or cry?
