Vendel Helmet – Authentic Scandinavian Pre-Viking Era Reproduction (16-Gauge Steel)

Step into the world of early Norse warriors with this faithful reproduction of a Vendel Helmet, crafted from 16-gauge steel and richly detailed with cast brass fittings inspired by authentic Vendel grave finds unearthed in Scandinavia.

The Vendel period (5th–8th centuries AD) was an era of artistry and warrior prestige, preceding the Viking Age. Helmets from this time were worn by noblemen and elite warriors, often decorated with intricate animal motifs and ornate metalwork, symbolizing both protection and high status.

This reproduction captures that same majesty and craftsmanship — a perfect choice for reenactors, collectors, and historians seeking an authentic pre-Viking look.
