Craftsweld Copper & Brass 4 Light 12 Bolt Diving Helmet

Item Details

Description

Fantastic looking four-light twelve bolt copper and brass diving helmet! This beautiful piece was made by Craftsweld when located in Bowie, MD. The helmet appears to have never been put in the water and is 100% complete. The copper body shows no noticeable dents. The helmet was polished initially but, over time, has started to develop a nice patina. The helmet would polish to a brilliant shine with simple metal polish and a rag if so desired. A fantastic diving helmet that will attract the attention of everyone who sees it.

All diving helmets in this auction will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Nations Attic. The certificate will have a unique number that will match the number on a tamperproof hologram decal placed inside the helmet. This information will be kept on permanent file at Nations Attic and help ensure the provenance of the helmet and authenticity. The display stand shown in the photos is not included. The option to purchase one after the auction will be provided.

All items will be shipped with a signature required upon delivery and full insurance either via FedEx or the USPS. Worldwide shipping available. A shipping quote prior to the auction can be provided by emailing your postal code.
