| An Edo period suit of raw iron with all matching parts, featuring 16 plate helmet with two lame shikoro and large fukigaeshi. The mask is fantastic, a real stunner with dramatic features and a large mustache. It has five plate sode and a go-mai-do cuirass of five iron plates, with kusazuri of leather scales. The sangu are all matching, very nice on dark silk tightly woven iron scales, with a crest in brass on the back of the hands. The original Maedate is in the form of a box and would likely have once held a charm for protection inside, perhaps a copy of the lotus sutra. A fine and unique armo dating from the mid to later Edo. The only damage of note is a general loss of lacquer on the leather kusazuri scales. It comes in the wooden box pictured. Stand and shipping are not included in the list price. | |||||||||||||||
