| The original of the kabuto (helmet) of the Dragon Armour is
interesting inasmuch as the bowl of the helmet came from the Momoyama
period. The suji bachi style of bowl, with overlapped and riveted
plates was typical of the finest helmet makers (katchu-shi) of
this period, borne out by the signature of the Saotome smith "Ienao" on
the back plate. The menpo (mask) is a typical ressei men of the
type made in Nara. Mounted on a solid wood display stand, this
helmet will be an outstanding addition to any collection and will
complement any décor beautifully. |
