Oda Nobunaga Japanese Suit of Armour. Oda Nobunaga (1534 -- 1582) played a key
role in shaping the course of history in fuedal Japan. His policy of unifying
a country controlled by many fueding daimyo (warlords) was furthered in a series
of victories characterized by brilliant tactics and the first organized use
of firearms.
His unification
policy became a reality under his successor, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, shortly before
the end of the 16th century. Our very affordable battle armor, constructed by
the craftsmen of Hanwei, is the Yukinoshita Do style, having largely solid vertical
plates around the torso and incorporating all of the elements of a suit of armor
of the period.
The crest
of Oda Nobunaga is mounted on the helment.
The armor
is wearable (within a reasonable size range!) and is supplied in the traditional
lacquered armor box, which, along with a wooden frame, provides the support
for the stunning display.
