Hesse officer IR 115. Leather body with no extra holes. All parts are silvered, recently polished, and held by split prongs,. The scales are German silver. The plate was once frosted. The Order of Henry is deep cobalt blue. It is slightly skewed and I have not tried to correct it. The white enamel ring has some pieces gone. The spike is detachable.
The body has two flaked spots on the back, and some leather crackling on the rear. The visor has been sanded down. It’s a great looking original, if not perfect Hessian 1st Grand Ducal helmet – at a nice price: $2,900
