【Product details】
This remarkable set comprises six Edo period or later manuscript scrolls, intricately depicting samurai armor, weaponry, and traditional tools used by high-ranking samurai. One scroll contains a manuscript with dimensions for a unique box resembling a chair. Three scrolls, titled "Dai Shogun Katchu Shoshiki Sei" (The Initial Ceremony of the Great Shogun Armor) and "Youjo Jou," feature gold leaf flecks scattered across the entire outer side, emphasizing their prestige. They appear to describe the highly regarded "Dai Yoroi," or "Formal Armor," regarded as the highest tier of samurai armor, along with its significance and handling.
The third scroll in this series includes richly illustrated depictions of samurai equipment, armor, and weapon names. A separate scroll with a wooden axle contains illustrations of individual armor components, complete with their names and explanations. Finally, the scroll titled "Kiba no Yumi Tou no Taisei" features an illustration of the archery bow alone, with its parts clearly labeled.
These scrolls exhibit varying degrees of wear due to age, such as minor tears, creases, discoloration, small holes, and repairs with tape. Please refer to the photos for a detailed understanding of their condition.
Dimension: approx. H 17-19 cm W 81-349 cm
