I agree, 19th century Qajar, and of good quality What's interesting is that it seems to be a matching pair, which is quite cool. Even though this chiseling is typical of Qajar, both items show the same pattern/details. Really cool, after 100+ years both items remained together. only the bazuband (arm guard) went astray:-) Nice pair!

hi weapons 27
I myself have a helmet Kulah Khud "Qajar", so I studied enough my model and yours has all the aspects of a real helmet Persian Qajar era as Alex pointed out, you're lucky enough to have the shield, which is two pieces on 3 that normally equip the Persian Princes congratulations, very attractive armor ![]() à + Dom |
