Japanese Edo Period Samurai Warrior’s Moulded Lacquered Leather Jingasa Helmet (War Camp Hat) With Sakai Clan Mon Badge, Tasselled Cord. Sn 16180 - 16180 The jingasa (War Camp Hat) was a type of helmet was worn by Japanese warriors when traveling or encamped. The jingasa is typically lacquered, making it especially lightweight and waterproof. The Edo period is the period between 1603 and 1868 in the history of Japan, when Japanese society was under the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate and the country's 300 regional daimyo. The Sakai clan was a Japanese samurai clan that claimed descent from the Nitta branch of the Minamoto clan, who were in turn descendants of Emperor Seiwa. In the Edo period, the politics of display of sankin kôtai and other ceremonial occasions led to jingasa becoming more decorative in appearance, as was also the case for many other items of samurai arms, armour, and clothing. These items performed important symbolic, ceremonial, and discursive political purposes. This is an original Japanese Edo period jingasa of moulded leather construction with black lacquer to exterior and red lacquer to interior. The edges of the brim has some light nibbles to be expected with age. The exterior has brass circular top boss with gilt tri spear radiating from the crown. It has a gilt Sakai clan mon to front and gold silk tassel suspended from a lug to the rear. It measures 35 x 33cm and is approx. UK size 7. The price includes UK delivery. Sn 16180 £295.00 |
