Kuro-urushi-nuri Konito Odoshi Domaru (black lacquered samurai armor)
解説をみる
Domaru is a lamellar armor (consisting of small platelets) bound together, wrapped around the torso, and tied under the right armpit. Made of alternating layers of iron plates and black lacquered leather squares, it’s tied together with navy blue string. The armor was preserved by the family of Kakimi Sukezaemon, a vassal of Azai Nagamasa, a sengoku warlord who conquered Kohoku. Based on its quality, it may have been a gift from Nagamasa.
