Lot 13
c. 500-200 BC, Classical down to Alexander the Great and Hellenistic periods. This beautiful two-part Chalcidian helmet features a high-crested brown and hinged cheek pieces. Moulded decoration above the brow comprises two curved horns; a stag motif appears on the side of the helm. These designs probably allude to Zeus Ammon, a syncretistic Graeco-Egyptian deity combining attributes of the Greek got Zeus and the Egyptian Amun, who is usually depicted as a horned man. After his conquest of Egypt, Alexander the Great visited a shrine of this god in the Egyptian desert and was declared “the song of Ammon,†leading to a lasting association between this god and royalty. This gorgeous piece may therefore have once belonged to a royal bodyguard. The Chalcidian helmet draws its name from pottery with which it was originally found and it is not known where this kind of helmet was invented. However, it seems to have been a late Classical evolution of the earlier Corinthian helmet, and was used from the later 5th century BC through to the Hellenistic period, including by Greek warriors in Southern Italy and by Alexander the Great's troops when he conquered his enormous empire. For further discussion, see Heckel, Waldemar, and Jones, Ryan. Macedonian Warrior: Alexander's Elite Infantryman. Osprey Publishing, 2006. In order to confirm its authenticity, this piece has undergone X-Ray Fluorescence analysis by an independent Belgian Laboratory. The samples collected show the chemical composition to reflect the typical metal contents of the described period, whilst also showing no modern trace elements in the patina.XRF certificate with full report will accompany this lot. All samples correspond to the metal content of the period specified; no modern trace elements were detected in the patina; expertly cleaned and conserved. Excellent condition with minor repairs; beautiful patina; on a custom-made stand.

Lot 335
During his early career, Stirling became tired of replacing leather watch straps regularly soiled by the oil coming back when driving front-engined cars. He set about designing a watch band that he could not only inter-change different watches with but also designed to easily clean after every race. An adjustable clasp was also incorporated in the design to accommodate different sized watches.The solid Gold watch band offered here is the actual watch band he designed and was made by his chosen jeweller Schindler of London in 1954. It is engraved to the adjustment clasp S.M. Stirling wore this watch band in over 200 races and until 1992 when his sponsorship began with Chopard who replicated heavier bands for him to accommodate the larger and heavier watches they were producing at the time.Three images come to mind of Stirling Moss. The plain white helmet, the no.7 on his car and the unusual twin bar watch band. Constantly worn by Stirling for 38 years the band shared many special moments in the globetrotting driver's adventures. These include 3 marriage ceremonies, 3 victories in the Monaco Grand Prix, and victory in the 1955 Mille Miglia driving the Mercedes no 722. Stirling was also wearing the watch band when he had his fateful accident at Goodwood in 1962 at Goodwood.This truly unique and historic item was gifted to the vendor in 1996. Stirling inter-changed many watches over the years and the watch fitted when passing it to the vendor is a 1956 Gold Jaeger LeCoultre alarm watch in good working order. Stirling remarked to the vendor, "It came in handy if I was jet-lagged or I fancied a nap in between races. Problem was I couldn't hear it because of all the noise of the other cars, but it's a bloody nice watch".This unique item must surely be one of the most historic and personal items ever to be offered by anyone involved in Gtand Prix racing....without doubt, it could tell some truly amazing stories.A collection of over 20 photos of Stirling wearing the watch over three decades accompanies this item.Please contact Shan Stokes on 07890 0933372 / shan@silverstoneauctions.com to discuss the lot in more detail.

Stirling Moss wore only four helmets during his career as a professional racing driver. Two were manufactured by Herbert Johnson Ltd. and two helmets were built for him by Patey Helmets.
