Original Chilean Artillery Kugelhelm – 1950s

Original Chilean Artillery Kugelhelm – 1950s

A rare original 1950s Chilean Army Artillery Kugelhelm, representing Chile’s enduring connection to the Prussian military tradition.

Featuring the distinctive brass Kugel (cannonball) finial instead of the traditional Pickelhaube spike, this authentic helmet is a remarkable example of Chilean militaria and South American military history.

Chile was among the last countries to retain Prussian-style military headgear, making original examples increasingly desirable among collectors of Pickelhaube, German-influenced militaria, Cold War collectibles, and military antiques.

100% Original: leather shell, brass fittings, artillery Kugel, chinstrap, liner, and period components.
