This original WWII Japanese Navy steel helmet shell comes complete with its liner and chinstrap. The helmet is an original wartime shell that has been refinished with a modern paint application. The interior retains its liner system and chinstrap. The helmet shows normal age-related wear consistent with service use, along with its refurbished exterior finish.

The helmet features period-style detailing referencing historical cavalry operations and major battles, presented as part of its current display configuration.
