BRITISH MILITARY REPRODUCTIONS

THE ZULU WAR OF 1879

All of our British helmets have 
a modern velcro adjustable headband 
to ensure a perfect fit for sizes from 6½ to 7¾.

ZULU WAR HELMET  A faithful copy of the famous Zulu War helmet as worn by the 24th Regiment of Foot, who fought so valiantly at Isandlhwana and Rorkes Drift. The body is covered with white fabric (green on the inside).  During the Zulu war, the helmet was worn both with and without the regimental plates shown below. THE HELMET COMES WITHOUT THE PLATE.  If you purchase a plate at the same time as a helmet, we will mount it for you free of charge (in fact, if you don’t want it mounted, be sure to let us know).

ZULU WAR MEDALS

VICTORIA CROSS

  The Victoria Cross is Britain's highest award for heroism. In the hundred and fifty years since it was established, fewer than seven hundred have been awarded.  Eleven of these were won by the defenders of the mission station at Rorke's Drift during the Zulu War.
  This is the finest copy we have ever seen. Not a cheap casting, but die-struck in bronze just like the original. Complete with crimson silk ribbon.
