In 2001, pieces of a Roman military helmet were discovered in Market Harborough (Leicestershire). Conservation experts from the British Museum and Leicestershire Museums subsequently created designs of what the entire helmet would have looked like and enlisted Rajesh Gogna to recreate the helmet. Using 3D printed plastic mould, Rajesh created two silver-plated and gilded helmets that are now on display at the Harborough Museum and Hallaton Museum (Market Harborough).
