"Gothic" Spangenhelm - Medicus matt - 10-29-2008

I've had a quick search and not found an answer to this one.

Does anyone know of a supplier of a simple, undecorated helmet based on the Baldenheim/Morken style of spangenhelm?

This sort of thing....

I refer my honourable collegue to the words "simple" and "undecorated".....maybe I should have included the word "relatively inexpensive". :wink:

I'm not looking for a museum quality reconstruction (lovely though the Gotshca is it would neccesitate the sale of at least one major internal organ), I'm looking for something that follows the same construction principles but without the bling.

If it was just for me then I'd follow the example of others on the Baldenheim thread and make my own but I don't fancy making half a dozen of them.

Seem reasonable prices.

I have this helmet made by them:

I have been thinking about asking if they could make me a spangenhelm like you are talking about. I am very satisfied with my "rus" helmet anyway!

THAT'S the sort of thing.
