(Code: 2572) | |   Approximately 1840s-50s this helmet was worn by Egyptian Cuirassier regiments who were bodyguards to the Khedive of Egypt Muhammed Ali Pasha.He was Khedive or Viceroy/Governor of Egypt and Sudan, a vassal of the Ottoman Empire.
These helmets were made in France and also by Henry Wilkinson of London.The Cuirassier Uniforms of the Khedives regiments followed European military styles of the time particularly France.There is much rust throughout the surface and interior of helmet but this could be cleaned up and removed and improve the appearance.
Crown is missing its dome and half moon spike and there is no chainmail aventail present to rear.Interior liner is also absent.Left side of chinstrap chainmail is present however the right side is missing a part of its attachment.Interior rear neck guard has the aventail chainmail attachment hooks present. Brass helmet centre band and round brass side discs in reasonable condition.There are three dents to the upper crown at front,side and rear.
The front arrow shaped visor guard is rusted but intact.To front right side of helmet crown is white paint that appears to be an accidental occurence at some time.
An unusual and rare helmet.

(Code: 1862) | |   A wooden frame with mounting and recess featuring the Princess Mary tin ,the original packets for the cigarettes and the tobacco,the pipe and period photos of the King and Queen and Princess Mary and a message from the Princess. .The burgundy backing cloth is now very faded over the many years since WWI. The frame shows understandable wear but in good condition.Does not appear to have had glass in frame as this would have not fitted with the contents in frame. The cigarette packets have not been opened, so we are unsure whither they contain the cigarettes and tobacco, we would rather not open the packets to find out. The packets do appear to be full but could not say for certain what is in them. The paper items have been glued to the backing cloth. Due to the frame being fragile this item cannot be posted outwith the UK. |
