Antique Edo Period Samurai Iron Kabuto Helmet Bowl 1660g Heavy Genuine Armor
Title: Antique Edo Period Japanese Samurai Iron Helmet Bowl (Kabuto Hachi) - 1660g
Description: An authentic, heavy iron Samurai helmet bowl (Kabuto Hachi / 兜鉢) dating back to the Edo Period. This is a genuine piece of Japanese warrior history, not a modern replica.
Weighing a substantial 1660 grams (approx. 3.66 lbs), this helmet bowl features a multi-plate iron construction characteristic of traditional Tosei Gusoku (modern armor) style. The exterior is coated in a historic black lacquer/textured finish. The interior shows the robust iron plates and the rivets used to form the skull cap, along with holes along the rim where the Shikoro (neck guard) was originally attached.
This is an excellent piece for display as-is, or as a high-quality restoration base for armor smiths and serious collectors.
