Item details
From the Warring States Period to the Early Edo Period, approximately 400 years, fragments of a practical-use kabuto (helmet).
This piece consists of iron fragments from the side and rear of a kabuto that has endured approximately four centuries. The condition is extremely poor, with the top cover of the helmet missing and one side of the fukikaeshi (turnback) damaged. Although it does not retain the original form of a samurai of considerable status, it still holds value as a reference material, which is part of the allure of antiques.
