ABOUT US:

At Supein Nihonto we strive to bring you high quality samurai swords and armors at prices far below the competition. We are probably the largest exporter in Europe and we are proud to anunce that we are number one TOP SELLER in Catawiki Samurai and Japanese auctions. This is especially important to save on taxes and waiting times that can exceed four months deliveries with Japanese sellers also headaches with tedious and sometimes problematic processes that further lengthen deliveries, even returning the parcel to its origin and more than 35% extra on the final price due the customs, tariffs and fees that increase the product but not the quality and the future resell. We are also professional sellers and therefore our satisfaction guarantee, knowledge and standards are superior to private sellers and with higher after sales guarantees. Thanks to this and the lowest professional prices in the industry plus our fast and efficient shipping method which rarely exceeds three days delivery in Europe, we are sure you will enjoy this great opportunity to own a piece of art that will appreciate in value for years to come and a great investment. Trust us to enjoy the samurai art.


ITEM DESCRIPTION:

Japanese Kabuto with figural maedate and gilt kuwagata — Edo period

This kabuto is defined by a deliberately dramatic, high-impact aesthetic: a deep black-lacquered hachi, a broad lamellar shikoro with a strong chromatic identity (black, gilt and indigo), and a sculptural maedate with a zoomorphic/demonic character, crowned by kuwagata-style gilt horns and oversized gilt ears. It is the kind of helmet designed to command attention in a display setting, with an unmistakably ceremonial-martial visual language.

Technical description and components

Hachi (helmet bowl)
High-profile hachi finished in glossy black lacquer, featuring a pronounced longitudinal ridge that sets the silhouette. A metal-edged rim is visible along the upper boundary, visually framing the form and reinforcing the helmet’s architectural presence.

Shikoro (neck guard)
Wide, flared shikoro built from overlapping lacquered lames (ita), with gilt-applied finishing that reads as both decorative intent and age-consistent wear. The odoshi lacing in indigo creates a bold, regular pattern with strong graphic rhythm. Along the edge, a green-toned knotted/laced border provides a third color accent and a richer overall palette.

Fukigaeshi
Compact gilt-finished fukigaeshi featuring a clearly visible circular mon: a roundel containing three horizontal bars. It adds immediate heraldic presence without needing interpretation—the motif is clean, legible, and visually valuable.

Maedate
A highly expressive sculptural maedate: a zoomorphic/demonic face with prominent eyes, a mouth accented with red, and moustache whiskers made from natural hair. The composition is completed by gilt kuwagata-style horns and large gilt ears. The reverse shows a metal mounting clip consistent with traditional attachment for this type of ornament.

Condition

Overall, the piece presents in solid condition. The lacquer retains good gloss and readability, with natural wear. The lacing appears intact and visually strong. The maedate retains its volume, expression, and organic elements (whiskers), which is particularly significant for figural crests. Partial changement or restored may have occurred during its lifetime.

All bids are binding, if you are not interested don't let other bidders miss the opportunity. Winning the auction and not paying for the item blocks you from bidding on catawiki on any auction forever, keep this in mind before bidding.
