Sendai Suit of Armor
This suit is in typical Sendai style and is comprised of a
Sendai Do, an eleven plate Suji Kabuto with a gilt crescent
moon Maedate, Mempo with Yodarekake, Tsutsu Gote, eight
piece Kusazuri, O-Shino Haidate on green silk brocade and
Tsutsu Suneate, all lacquered black with blue and beige
lacing. Presently, it is mounted on an iron frame, which
makes it appear as if it were sitting on an armor box, which
does not come with this suit.
Price: $6,500.
