Replica Brass and Copper Diving Helmets
While our main specialty is selling various types of brass bells, over the years we've discovered some of the world’s best manufacturers of very realistic brass and copper diving helmet replicas.
To those of you who think that all dive helmet replicas are alike and just want to buy the cheapest one you can find, we offer our basic life-size copper and brass diving helmet. At 24 pounds and almost 18 inches high, it's our least expensive model, but well made enough to look great in any high end nautical décor. We also have our heaviest model, an authentic looking Mark V helmet replica, that weighs nearly 35 pounds and comes complete with a realistic embossed nameplate. Both styles come in highly polished copper sheeting with brass hardware or in antiqued brass styles, with the option of walnut stained hardwood bases.
For customers who want an actual antique diving helmet, we recommend checking out your favorite antique stores and online auction houses. Not only will you discover that many antiques are beyond most budgets, you may also get "taken" by unscrupulous (or uninformed) dealers trying to pass off "weathered" replica dive helmets as real antiques. And unless you're someone who prefers the battered, antique green patina of an old helmet missing hardware and screws, you might discover that a replica brass helmet is the way to go.
We’ve Found the Best Diving Helmet Replicas
Through trial and error—and believe me when I say we've been disappointed more than once with a few diving helmet manufacturers—we’ve discovered some of the best quality replica helmets for the price.
Our diving headwear is made of thick copper sheeting that has been shaped and highly polished to a mirror like finish. Hardware and portholes are solid brass, not just electroplated. If you prefer the antiqued patina of an old helmet, our antiqued brass and copper helmets have just the right rich, distressed look of an aged—not abused—piece of nautical décor.
While it's difficult to tell quality differences online through low resolution photos, we're confident that when you open our box and see your beautiful diving helmet for the first time, it will exceed your expectations—or we’ll give you your money back!
