Japan - Military uniform - Imperial Japanese Army Officers' Formal Uniforms 大礼服 DAIREIFUKU

This is a set of Imperial Japanese Army officers' formal uniforms. Very rare and in good condition. This is a uniform in the officer class of the army. During the war in Japan, these were worn during ceremonies and gatherings, not in places of battle. ◆Japanese Army Officers' Formal Uniforms 大礼服 DAIREIFUKU (Court Dress) Size: width 50cm / length 90cm Dressmaker: KANAYAMA AZABU. TOKYO  The materials used for each of these items are high quality and the sewing and construction is very careful. It's amazing.  On the left hip is a belt from which the sword (katana) is suspended. Some stains. Please see photos. There is a black thread on the chest. This is a thread to hang the medal,  so this is normal. It is 100 years old, so please understand the condition. ◆Formal Uniforms 大礼服 DAIREIFUKU , Full-dress Pants Size: width 35cm / length 100cm Purple lines are very rare in the market. This one belonged to a "Animal Doctor" who served in the Army. I have seen numerous "DAIREIFUKU" but never an "animal doctor" before. Their main job was to be "horse" doctors. Needless to say, horses played an important role in those days when there were no cars like today. Transportation, mobility on the battlefield, and smart horses were also important during war. And the "doctors" who examined these important "horses" were treated in Japan as if they were gods. They were treated like top class officers in wartime Japan. ◆Shoulder strap 肩章 Two Stars The two star on the shoulder strap is the sign of lieutenant (中尉 Cuui). ◆Formal Cap Size: 25×20×13cm Feather length: 35cm It is made of high quality fabric that keeps its shape and feels good against the skin. The feathers that insert into the cap are very prominent in the design, artistic and wonderful. ◆National Flag HINOMARU 日の丸 Size: 73×109cm Material: silk It belongs to the same owner. It is pre-World War II. ◆Special Wooden Box  Size: 43×73×29 cm During Japan's wartime, clothing was supplied to the army by clothing tailors in a slightly different manner. This means that the clothes may have been designed slightly differently. Especially near the end of the war, there were times when it was left up to the tailors. And as we can see, the design of the special boxes, in particular, differed greatly from tailor to tailor. This time, the box is large, heavy, and sturdy. Please be careful when unlocking the door. Slide the entire round area with the keyhole to the left or right. It will then open. ※Total weight 10kg Shipping from Japan is very expensive because it is very large and heavy. Please understand. Valuable items are packaged tightly and shipped from Japan to overseas. It is old, so there are some signs of use and a few dirt, but overall it is in excellent preservation condition. During wartime in Japan, when supplies were scarce and resource prices were skyrocketing, only a few people could afford to own these sets. They were rich and of the upper class. These are items that have a small number of remaining pieces and are at the level of being displayed in a museum somewhere. Please take a look and add to your collection. I have other rare items up for recent auctions, so please check back.
