This 6-inch decorative diving helmet is a reproduction of the historic Mark V Navy diving helmet, originally introduced in 1916 and widely used by the United States Navy for deep-sea diving operations. Made from brass and copper, this piece has a polished finish that gives it the appearance of an antique. Though not an original, it is designed to reflect the craftsmanship of early diving equipment. The Mark V helmet became an iconic symbol of maritime exploration and salvage work, remaining in service for much of the 20th century.
