A heavy-looking small cherry blossom dread! A May doll helmet with a genuine small plate

Size: Width 75cm x Depth 46cm x Height 72cm

This is a modern May doll made by Edo armor maker, Tatsuhisa.
The reason why this traditional helmet has a modernist feel is because Master Tatsuhiro himself studied and created the armor by fusing both traditional Kyoto armor and the ornate Edo armor.

May dolls, which represent the heyday of good old traditions and colorful, modern culture, will blend in with any interior.
Reflecting the heartfelt joy at the birth of a child, the helmet strap is colored in celebratory red, and the engraving, which is the designer's specialty, is finished in beautiful gold for a gorgeous look.

【helmet】

The back of the helmet is made of deerskin called Koshu Inden.
The deerskin has a pattern applied with lacquer.
Deerskin was a material often used for military commanders' armor and helmets because it conformed to the body and was strong enough to resist minor sword wounds.

Although you want to protect your body during battle, making everything out of metal means you lose agility and flexibility.
Deerskin was able to make up for that.
It has a history of over 400 years, but until recently it was a closely guarded technique that was passed down orally.

A sturdy and sturdy combination pot

The metal fittings on the front are carved in silver of doves, which are said to bring happiness.

The Inden leather pattern used for this helmet is a gourd.
This pattern was popular as it represents wishes for prosperity and advancement in life.

The helmet is made of genuine leather and has a leather back. It is a high-quality helmet.

To make the helmet stronger, each rivet is fastened by hand.

The helmet's threatening thread is also finished with a small cherry blossom pattern made of genuine leather.

The beautifully finished front of the helmet

If you look at the back of the helmet, you can see that the black parts are made of lacquer.

The light brown lining of the helmet is made of genuine leather.

The cabinet part of the helmet is also made using traditional techniques with uneven surfaces.

[Display stand]

The display stand is made of cedar board.

It has a heavy feel and is finished to resemble well-used old furniture.

The statue features bows and arrows and swords, which were essential items for samurai.

The design is designed to enhance the impression of the May doll, which is both traditional and modern.

【folding screen】

During the Sengoku period, swords were kept close to the body so they could be picked up at any time.

It is said that sword racks can only be used in peacetime.

It is said that for a military commander, it was the thing closest to him after his own life.

With the hope that the May dolls will symbolize peace, we have created a folding screen with a sword hanger design.
The colors are subdued so that the gold and red used in the May dolls stand out.
