Description from the seller

Kabuto and mask of Samurai with a kuwagata maedate from the Edo period .
.
Interesting kabuto from the middle of the Edo period. 1680-1750.
.
The kabuto is a hari -bachi kabuto made in iron with 6 large plates (roku-ken) then black lacquered . The shikoro is lacing with blue sugake odoshi
.
And the front plate is thick two sheet of iron. Good ,strong reinforcement .
.
.This helmet bears testimony to its creator's genius, drawing inspirations from various designs to craft a unique and original piece :
.
- The general shape of this helmet immediately reminiscent of the 5-plate Hineno-Zunari helmets

- It features the " tenkokuzan "shape, characterized by a pronounced depression where the plates meet around the tehen no kanamono or hachimanza .

-Additionally, the outer plates of the hachi bowl are slightly convex, reminiscent of "akoda"-style helmets.
.
Not a classic Hineno-zunari kabuto here but an original kabuto made with 6 plates .
.
Edo-period armorers sought to showcase their craftsmanship, no longer bound by the urgent need for rapid helmet production that had characterized the warfare Sengoku period...
.
In adition there is a late Edo period mask tsubame-bo , made in iron then shu-red lacquer outside and black lacquered inside .
.
In good condition with bright red color ,and the yodare-kake is lacing with blue lacing odoshi.
.
A good and authentique Samurai ensemble in good condition with aged patina.
.
.
.
( free worldwide shipping ).
.
Import taxes outside Europe are the responsability of the buyer.
