This kabuto samurai helmet ornament is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans using the traditional kimekomi technique. Carefully selected fabrics are expertly combined, ensuring every detail is perfected. The name "Saiki" combines the meanings of "colorful" and "radiance" in Japanese, evoking a refined charm when complemented by a rich selection of accessories.
Samurai helmets, or kabuto, were traditionally worn for protection in battle and symbolize safeguarding one’s life. In Japan, this symbolism carries into Tango-no-Sekku, Boys' Day, celebrated on May 5th, when families display kabuto ornaments in their homes to wish for their children's safety, health, and strong growth.
The decorative component affixed to the front of the kabuto, known as the maedate, was designed to assert individuality and presence on the battlefield, and it is adorned with depictions of fierce animals. Adorning every surface are auspicious motifs that evoke a sense of good fortune and prosperity.
Behind the kabuto, a circular screen finished in Aizu lacquer is adorned with auspicious motifs. Flanking this centerpiece, an exquisitely crafted bow and arrow set stands to one side, while a tachi "long sword" is positioned on the other, further enhancing the display.
