May doll: Oyamazumi Shrine's replica of Minamoto no Yoshitsune, 1/4 scale donated armor, copper round armor
Tomishi Kato, the first Edo armor maker, designed this beautiful purple gradation armor of Minamoto no Yoshitsune, a national treasure. There are 18 armors designated as national treasures and important cultural properties in Japan.
The "Minamoto no Yoshitsune" statue dedicated to Oyamazumi Shrine in the Seto Inland Sea is the only copper round armor.
Domaru Yoroi was a revolutionary armor that made it easier to walk than the large armor designed for horseback riding.
This unique copper round armor is a precious armor decoration made by Tomomi Kato using tanned deerskin and lacquer and shoe lacquer materials as a doll ornament for the festival.
This is a high-class finish that uses a large amount of lacquered small plates, called kasashikoro. The head part is called awase-bachi, and multiple metal fittings are assembled by hand to increase its strength.
Armor with a beautiful purple base and a beautiful color gradation.
It seems that military commanders in the past enjoyed using such beautiful color schemes as a fashion statement.
The black parts are made of washi paper coated with lacquer and cashew paint, a modern take on the Muromachi period armor techniques!
The hoe-shaped crest is polished by hand.
The body is made of deerskin and is painted with indigo and crimson. Tomomi Kato is the first Japanese traditional armor craftsman.
In fact, high-quality May dolls are not flashy.
As you gain knowledge about May dolls, you will notice the difference in texture. Tomomi Kato's work is characterized by his faithful reproduction of armor made in the Muromachi and Kamakura periods of the Genpei era.
The black kozane part is made by hand by applying lacquer to a Japanese paper-based material more than 10 times, and is finished off with a cashew paint to make it stronger and more durable.
They incorporate a technique called "tsurubashiri," which uses tanned deer leather to make the bowstring glide smoothly, to create dolls for the May festival.
An elegant gold pattern of "Pine Trees on Waves" is placed on a pale beige tsumugi cloth.
I chose a simple design because I wanted the design to have a sense of elegance and style. When you look closely at the design from different angles, you can see glimpses of various sparkling colors.
This is because a seven-color coloring process called pologram is applied before the gold leaf is applied.
I would like to display it for Tango no Sekku for a long time, without it fading and looking stylish.
This elegant folding screen and stand is recommended for such people.
