~ Fife Light Horse 1871 Pattern Victorian Troopers Helmet ~
A resonable Victorian example with a white metal skull, plume holder and white horsehair plume.

There is an ornate spray and back strap, white metal rosettes, leather backed brass chin scales and brown leather lining.

Please refer to the images for the condition.
The leather backing on the chin scales is unstitched and there are several dents to the skull.
A decent example.
