Definitely a period camo on a size 64 ET shell made by Eisenhuettenwerke Thale A.G., Thale /Harz, who manufactured shells in sizes 60-68.
It’s a nice and untouched example with a fantastic patina. It’s got some interesting colours and the dividing lines almost look a dark purple/black shade which I’ve seen on other helmets. If there’s anything I’ve learned about WW1 camo helmets, it’s that there is an unlimited variety of styles and shades, as many soldiers interpreted the 1918 directive quite loosely.
Congratulations

Oh man, Awesome!
Thank you so much for letting me know this. I'm really glad to know the camo is period. Despite not being too heavily into WWI militaria, I'm absolutely in love with this helmet. I think it might send me down a WWI collecting rabbit hole!
Thanks again Andy, I really appreciate it!

A very nice find. Has a great worn look to it! Even though it is just a shell, it will display very nicely.
Congrats.
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

Outstanding find, congratulations! Authentic camos are getting harder and harder to come by these days.
