Title Home Service helmet crosspiece and spike, officer's
Nationality British
Period c 1871 on
Sold

This, in white metal, is the officer's fitting for the blue cloth helmet of 1871, worn in full dress until 1914. The white metal denotes volunteer status, as opposed to regular. Its condition is excellent, but there are no securing nuts or bolts to the screw threads.
