An attractive French 1870 pattern Cuirassier troopers helmet
Helmet of polished steel having a peak and lobster tail back that are decorated with brass trim, a high ornamental raised brass comb that is faced with a Medusa's head, with flowing horsehair mane attached. A decorative plume socket, with red brush, is fitted and mounted above the Medusa’s head. To the front of the helmet body is fitted a brass plate that features a flaming grenade with laurel branches either side. A plume socket of brass is fitted to the left side of the helmet body complete with red plume and a leather chinstrap, faced with brass chin scales. Inside, the helmet has seven tongues of leather lining showing some wear. A small, stamped makers mark on the rear of the helmet is stamped A. GOD***CT. With the inside of the peaks being painted mustard brown there is a strong chance this helmet was used in the very early part of WW1.
