This high quality sun hat was made by Charles Owen & Co Ltd in London.
It was designed to cover and protect its wearers head from the the harsh sun on tropical expeditions.
The inside of the helmet is lined with cotton for a comfortable fit.
The band has been decorated on the side with a boar tusk that was presumably found on an expedition or hunting trip!
This helmet would still be the ideal piece to wear on a hot sunny day but it would also be a unique decor piece to add some adventure!
After almoste a century the helmet remains in worn condition and shows some signs of wear and use. The patina it got over the years only adds to its rugged character in my opinion.
