CUSTOM MADE LOBSTER-TAIL HELMETS
These beautiful Lobster-Tail helmets are constructed of quality parts, fashioned by master craftsmen
in Europe. These inlude massive heavy-weight chinscales, secured by proper clover-leaf rosettes and correct
machined bolt fasteners. All of our products are custom made, so we do not stock an inventory
of the products that you see here. All orders will be accepted with a deposit of 50% down, payable via Paypal. Upon
completion of the requested items, customers will be notified and the balance of payment can be made. Uniforms,
helmets and embroidered items are very labor intensive, resulting in a period of six to eight weeks for completion.

Officers of the Life-Cuirassier Regiment
wore nickel plated helmets with the trim,
studs, spike base,
chin scales, rosettes
and helmet plate gilded.
The spike matched the metal of the helmet.
The helmet plate, chin
scales and cockades
were of distinctive patterns unique to this regiment.
The helmet plate is the old Prussian eagle
pattern.
A crowned eagle rising with wings displayed
with a sword clutched vertically in its right talon
with lightning
bolts clutched in its left talon.

Note: This helmet comes mounted with a high-quality, commercially available Parade Eagle. For those
seeking a Parade Eagle only, we have a European craftsman, that is capable of hand-making completely accurate, custom
models of the Garde du Corps Parade Eagle, in both officer's and trooper's styles. These are very limited in availability,
due to being extremely labor-intensive. Each eagle requires several weeks to create. Please refer to
our page on helmet parts for detailed photos of these Parade Eagles.
.
Note: This helmet comes mounted with a high-quality, fluted service spike and eliptical base. For
those who desire a parade verison, mounted with the fantastic Leib-Gendarmerie Parade Eagle, there is good news.
We have been working with a skilled artist to create a highly accurate parade eagle.
The prototype eagle has been in development for many months.

Curving over the top of the eagle scroll with the motto
”PRO
GLORIA ET PATRIA”.
The chin scales were of the most unusual pattern,
unique to this regiment. They were flat
with
single scallops and rolled edges.
They were hinged with a single pin
to their trefoil-shaped rosettes..
Consequently
the Cockades went directly under the rosettes.
