Samurai Helmet Decoration Kyoto Style S5037

This exquisite piece is crafted by Kiyonobu Awataguchi, a traditional craftsman of Kyo dolls. The technique known as "gold leaf pressing on small plates" is employed, where gold leaf is meticulously applied by hand to the individual scales that make up the armor, giving the entire piece a refined luster.

The Tango no Sekku (Children's Day), celebrated on May 5, corresponds to around June 5 today. Why not celebrate this occasion along with the fragrant season of irises?
