Fireman's Helmet - NSW (Red Badge) reproduction
Heroes' of yesteryear
When one first eyes any of the Gifts Actually collection of classic 19th & 20th century fireman helmets, one would likely be distracted by its brilliant hand-craftsmanship, its’ intricate patterning on the side of the ornate dragon comb, or by its’ audacious brass shine or copper gleam. But after one moves past the beautiful look of this antique inspired, life-size vintage piece, one might start to wonder why a fireman would have worn something that is notoriously prone to adopting and retaining the temperature of its surrounds, i.e. gets really, really hot? Modern technology has pushed these wonderful helmets into obscurity, and they can now only act as reminders of the glorious past.
NSW Merryweather & Cornell Annandale 1906 antique vintage hand crafted and engraved royal polished gold finish fireman helmet. Historical replica, firefighters wore these helmets to protect from heat, cinders and falling objects. Interestingly the shape of the helmets have had minimal changes over the years, however the material compositions have evolved from leather to metals and finally lighter weight polymers and plastics for ease of use.
