Description

This ornamental domaru samurai armor balances refined artistry and strength in compact form. Modeled after a lightweight armor style that gained favor in the late Heian period (794–1185 CE), it reflects the strategic practicality once prized on the battlefield. The vivid red, long associated in Japan with protection and triumph, gives it a bold, dignified presence.

Measuring approximately 26 cm (10.2 in) in height, it’s modest in scale—ideal for alcoves, shelves, or desks. Though often displayed for Children’s Day in Japan to celebrate growth and resilience, its timeless design and striking form make it equally suited to year-round enjoyment. Whether placed in a traditional setting or a modern interior, it brings a distinct sense of heritage and character.

Each piece is handcrafted using Edo Kimekomi, a traditional technique developed in the Edo period (1603–1868 CE), known for its sculpted wooden cores and precisely fitted fabric inlays. The soft textures, golden accents, and layered construction speak to the care and precision of skilled artisans. Complete with a black lacquered base and wooden name plaque, it also makes a meaningful gift for admirers of Japanese culture.
