Title Royal Horse Guards OR's helmet plume, nylon
Nationality British
Period c 1960
Price £40.00

This fits the standard troopers helmet. This regiment, one of the oldest in the Household Cavalry, has guarded the monarchs of Britain ever since Charles II returned in 1660. They still guard the monarch on state occasions, along with the Life Guards, who wear the same helmet, but with a white plume.

It is in ex-stores condition, but missing the rosette to cover the top fitting, and missing the locking nut on the base.

testimonials

I wanted to thank you for the perfect service that you did selling and packing the swords. Everything worked perfect. At the airport I had no troubles at all, the airline took the package without been astonished at all.

I am more and more pleased with the sword, and am wondering whether to do an article on it...
