It was made in 1540 in Germany, probably in Augsburg or Nuremberg, which was home to some of the most skilled armour makers of the time.

This helmet is quite special-looking and is one of the few well-preserved items owned by King Gustav Vasa of Sweden. The helmet is currently on display at the Royal Swedish Armoury Museum, which is located in the Royal Palace in Stockholm and is one of the oldest museums in the world. The museum houses historical artifacts from the Swedish royal family and military.
