Edo Period Samurai Suit Of Armor
Located in New Orleans, LA
This complete samurai okegawa dou gusoku suit of armor dating to the late 18th century is a remarkable rarity and remains in pristine condition. One of the most exceptional sets of Edo Period armor ever to grace the market, this armor would protect an esteemed warrior from head to toe.
This suit was made for a high-ranking official of the Kyogoku clan, a house of samurai in Japan. Though today the word samurai is often thought of interchangeably with warrior, it traditionally referred to a specific class of military nobility in Japan. From the late 12th century until the late 1860s when the Meiji era began, the samurai were the ruling military class, ranking directly beneath the emperor.
Esteemed Edo-period armorer Yamashiro Kuni Fujiwara Kanehisa created this extraordinary set for a noble samurai, incorporating elaborate details and opulent materials, appropriately highlighting the prestige of the armor’s owner. The set includes all of the traditional armor needed for a samurai warrior, including an elaborate helmet bearing the signature of the armorer.
