As has been said, "Tiaraartig" means, literally, like a tiara. This is very specific; it means the type of crown/royal headgear which is semi-circular and rises from a simple band of metal at the sides to a highly-decorated, bejewelled arch at the front, once worn by Persian men of royal blood and now very popular among aristocratic women in Europe.
A helmet that could be considered "Tiaraartig" would then be like those shown in old artworks on Roman themes, with a plate like a visor, rising to an arc in the centre of the forehead section. Such helemets were worn by officers in old "Roman" films like "Ben-Hur", "The Fall of the Roman Empire", "King of Kings" etc., etc..
