Description from the seller

Bushi lord's gunbai – "generals"

Product description.

It was used as a command accessory; it allowed giving orders to the samurai in battle.

The size of the item would allow it to be seen from afar! It is a piece of unique beauty with inscriptions!

Very, very, very RARE, actually used on battlefields.
Only a museum or a serious collector would want and be able to obtain it.

This military object dates from the Edo period.

The size is approximately 80 cm by 38.5 cm.

No—the armor behind is not included in the sale.
