Antique French Faience Glazed Ceramic Helmet Rare!

A French 19th century Faience glazed ceramic helmet, slightly smaller than life-size, with a shaped shoulder and neck, and with a pierced upper faceplate, with a crest on the top flanked by raised flowers, glazed in cobalt blue designs over white. The designs are rococo and floral with dragons and helmets with lances and shields on either side of the head. You won't find another like this, extra rare Faience!

Condition: Excellent! it has very insignificant scuffs and minor loss as seen and no distraction,  a very fine and heavy piece that is sure to last another 100 years plus! There are two holes with wired metal at the back and one hole in the crest. It is marked "France" with crossed swords inside the underside. Coordinates beautifully with our monumental French Faience glazed Urn as seen below!

Overall the piece measures approx. 14"H x 9-1/2"W x 12"D.
