AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a Japanese samurai helmet from the late Edo period or later period.

There are dirt, scratches, tears, fading, stains, damage and holes, but it is not in bad condition for something of its age. Some parts may have been changed during its life.
A placket is also included.
I think the placket was added later.
It is an exceptional piece with extremely high historical value.
