The Von Gravert Type "Niederbieber" Helmet made by Deepeeka is an accurate replica ornate based off historical research and authentic in its design. The typical Roman-era helm is quite protective on its own, but this Von Gravert Helmet adds a few features and enhances others, all with the intent of giving added protection, as well as enhancing the look of the Roman soldier who wears it. This simple yet effective helmet features a raised cross-shaped ridge along the crown of the helmet, which adds strength and durability to the helm, while also helping to divert impacts down the side of the helm and away from the center of the skull. A visor is attached to the front, along with shirt spiked protrusions, which helps to protect the wearer's face. Large cheek protectors are attached via hinges at the sides of the helm and add additional protection to the face and chin, while leaving an open gap for the wearer to see. The back of the helmet slants down slightly against the wearer's neck, providing protect from the back as well. Infantryman began to equip themselves with heavy cavalry helmets from around AD 200. Many of these helmets resemble those found at Niederbieber, in Germany, on the Rhine frontier.

This Roman Von Gravert style Helmet was popular with the infantry and cavalry of the 2nd and 3rd century and would have been worn by Legionaries and Auxiliaries alike. It is constructed from brass and has encompassing hinged cheek plates which can be secured closed with an integrated pin. The interior is blackened and unlined - included is a separate padded cotton arming cap which can be worn beneath the helmet for comfort and cushioning.
