1 / 1

Description

●Product Description● This is a black kabuto (helmet) of a rare shape from the historical period. It is made from materials typical of its time. The exterior is metal with a black coating, and it has a scratch from a sword on the visor area, which my late father particularly cherished. Being an antique, there are some cracks in the surface painting. The internal fabric and cord are also from the period, showing signs of wear appropriate for its age. While detailed information is not provided, it is quite an old piece. Please check the photos for the condition, as it reflects its age. The display stand used for photos is not included. ●Shipping● Flat shipping fee nationwide: ¥2,900 (additional fees for Hokkaido, Okinawa, and other remote islands). While we take utmost care, we ask for your understanding regarding potential peeling of the surface paint during transport. We also have numerous other historical items for sale, so please check our auction list as well.
