EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a Franco-American Dunand helmet with a protective visor, designed by the renowned Swiss metalsmith Jean Dunand in 1917. The helmet was created towards the end of the First World War for use by the French and American Expeditionary Forces (AEF). Dunand, a master of his craft, infused the helmet with intricate design elements, including an eagle crest and symbolic motifs. The helmet's visor served as a face guard, providing essential protection for soldiers in the heat of battle. Despite its innovative design and high regard, the Franco-American Dunand helmet did not go into mass production. Today, it remains a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the time, and can be found on display in various museums and exhibitions around the world. This historical artifact is a reminder of the significant role Switzerland played in supplying essential military equipment during the Great War, and the enduring legacy of Jean Dunand's design.
