About the Item
Samurai Helmet "Zunari kabuto" with 3 black lacquered iron plates.
Japan, early EDO period, circa 1610.
Neck protector (shikoro), 5-strip hineno, laced brown, beige and green.
Central ornament (maedate) in gold and silver lacquered wood. Triple tomo with 2 maple leaves. 2 rounded horn-shaped side ornaments (wakidate) in black and gold lacquered wood.
Black-lacquered iron mask (menpo), gray horsehair moustache, red-lacquered interior. Throat guard.
Damage and missing parts.
A true testament to history, culture and warrior tradition, this Kabuto, over 400 years old, imposing fear and respect, is a unique historical treasure. The strict samurai school begins at age 3, where students learn to overcome fear and suffering and acquire total impassivity. From the age of 8, apprentice warriors witness executions and carry the heads of the slain. When we talk about fear and respect, we are not joking.
Having said this, it is also a very decorative object.
