Dragon Armour Samurai Helmet 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. This Samurai battle helmet is wearable, has traditional construction and is
magnificently detailed. Made by Hanwei.
