BMAG curator Dr David Symons enthuses about a reproduction helmet made by Dave Roper. It was commissioned by Tamworth Council and is on display as part of the Staffordshire Hoard exhibition at Tamworth Castle from August 27th to September 18th 2011.
Parts of the helmet are modelled on the fragments of helmet in the Hoard and parts are modelled on the Sutton Hoo helmet. It is plated with silver foils in the same way as the Staffordshire Hoard helmet would have been.
Filmed at Tamworth Castle during the installation of the Staffordshire Hoard exhibition on 23rd August 2011.
