Antique Chain Mail Helmet

Description

My great grandfather bought this helmet at a clearing sale but I don't know when. Some time before 1940 because that's when he died.

I have been told by one person that it was Mughul.

Other than that, I do not know

The chainmail needs repair.

Hi Martin

Sorry for the delay. I live in a country area and ourinternet connection is almost as bad as dial-up and has beentiming out atrociously the last few days, so I've been doing  more offline ! :-)

As it is a family 'heirloom', I need to consult my siblings regarding your offer.

In the meantime, is your offer in USD ? And where are you situatedso I can calculate the insured postage for it if all goes ok with the others.

I'll get back to you soon.

cheers

Jenny

Hi Martin

Sorry for such a delay but I have a sister

caravaning the middle-of-nowhere, at the moment.

 

That's fine, they are all agreeable, I just have to get you a quote for the

postage. It is Saturday here in Australia so I will find out on Monday, at the

post office.

 

Regards

Hi again

The postage calculated at the post office is $105 USD, which includes insurance.

I understand if this is inhibitive and you do not wish to continue with the sale.
