Hello,I am making custom helmets for Viking re-enactors here in Australia and would love to make for international customers. They come padded with felt and hand sewn with wool, and chin straps finished with a bone buckle.
These helmets have not been made in India or China, therefore they are more expensive. They are made with love and passion for the craft and to please the customer, either historically accurate or not (depending on your needs and wants.)
I research the item, and will make what you want. In the case below the customer wanted a Valsgarde style helm with the eye holes more open for clearer vision, with effective yet simplistic eye brow pieces that were affordable (some of the Valsgarde brow pieces are VERY detailed)
The bone buckle was an extra that befits the Valsgarde/Vendel period.
The price was $320- Aus, (approx $266 US) custom made and fit.
Can do cheaper helms for those on a budget, or more elaborate work.
