The “helmet” from Coțofenești was found, but it is made of wool! A 34 -year -old artist from Iasi, disappointed by the theft of the Dacian treasure, began to crochet hats, in the form of a hat.
To resemble the original, it used golden thread and retained the same size. The idea of Alexandei Rîmbu has gone viral on the Internet, and the young woman started receiving orders.

Alexandra worked three days at the wool crochet.

The crocheted helmet can also be seen at Art Safari Bucharest, starting March 7, in the Young Blood exhibition. Next to the helmet will be exhibited and three bracelets, also crocheted, according to the model stolen in the Netherlands.
