ITEM:

It Comes with certificate of SupeinNihonto.

Fabulous and rare armor in good condition given its age and use and with all its elements. Beautiful and striking blue, orange and black patterns on almost all the armor. The armor has a very unusual and very striking mask, golden inside. This type of mask is known as men and is characterized by having the entire face covered, giving an aspect of ferocity and fear much greater than with other types of masks such as menpo (half face) or hanpo (cheek and neck protector) which makes this armor in a great piece with great spectacularity and theatricality. As if that were not enough, it retains the original maedate created without a doubt in a personalized way, in trench art style. The maedate is made with a real buffalo horn with rough engravings, probably handmade by the samurai himself, of a katana and the symbol of the Asano clan for which he probably fought, widely known for the incident of the 47 ronin. It also has in a small ring a lock of hair, probably from a horse, with enough meaning for him to indicate this detail in the maedate. Undoubtedly an artistic and personal element of great historical value. Because of the workmanship and quality involved, it was specifically created for a high level samurai or a local daimyo. Some pieces have been restored over the centuries and evidently it has damage from use and transport but in general it is very well made. A composite armor from Edo period composite with some other elements from showa.

It includes the box that was used during transport and for display, plus a wooden skeleton to keep it upright. As is normal in a suit of armor with so much history, which was undoubtedly used for combat and is not a mere reproduction of the 20th century, it has some superficial scratches, surface damage and chips that show that it had a long life of combat and retains an authentic and precious historical value worthy of a museum. This exclusive piece is published with no minimum reserve price, making it an incredible opportunity for any collector of Japanese, war or simply historical art to get their hands on a piece that will attract attention wherever it is displayed, from offices, to private homes, offices or restaurants and will give a regal look to any place. Visit Us at www.supeinnihonto.com. The armour has gilded details that show the quality of the piece. The incredible workmanship accentuates such ornate pieces as the kabuto, the mempo and the Do. The stand to assemble it and the box are included. This armour is sure to delight any collector of Asian art and will be the focal point of any visitor's home, shop or office. There is a very ancient object and there are fabrics damaged by time and tears. Due to the delicacy of continuous assembly and disassembly, returns are not allowed on old armor.
