Description

Original Edo Period (1603 – 1867) three piece set of two sets of chest armor and one painted Jingasa (Hat). The condition rates as poor – fair with pieces flaking and both chest sets missing a latch to close on one side. Some of the fabric is also frayed. Very fragile condition but displays well. The shield is missing a handle.
