A cool and beautiful French antique fire helmet in brass, of the early 20th century. A very original and cool fire helmet to decorate the bookshelf or wall with.
The front plate of the helmet bears the Classic French fireman symbol of a flaming grenade within the central shield insignia flanked by an olive branch and oak branch.
The small channel on the left side would have held a plume when the firemen were on parade, circa 1900.
A three part banner above reads Sapeurs, Pompiers, De Hermes, which in English translates Firemen of De Hermes.
