Shibo nuri. Zenon Vandamme and Robert Soanes use this technique perfecly Zenon once restored an item for me 25 years ago, no difference visible. Btw, the Horai used this technique also.

not yet, but if you google the titels, you will find them easily.I also recommend Jock Hopsons and Ian Bottomley ‘s Arms and Armor of the samurai. It still is the best book to get started.

a difficult question. But the patina of the years , even small damages have their value. It is important to keep the soul of an item intact.

Nice to see you Jon! As a Japanese Armor Society member, you know that preservation and restoration are important to maintain the beauty of armor for future generations.
-
we are also happy to announce our new website. www.japanesearmorsociety.com

our third Japanese Armor Society's Yearbook, now under the name KATCHU. 96 pages full of Japanese armor news, articles by the world's leading experts, and our activities. pm me for more information.

I also thought it is a backplate, because of the shoulder straps (watagami). A Mongolian provenance seems Also plausible.

Here one I had a time ago. After examination, it seemed to be a modern museum display copy
-
I have to echoe Ian. This is a nice replica. If it was a real one, then it is better than the ones in the National musuem of Tokyo. I once bought a complete tanko, excavated according the seller. After scientific examination, we discovered that it was a 20th century museum copy. Don’t dream, it is a nice copy, nothing more.

About tentsuki, most of those Tachibana golden momonari had no tsunamoto. It must have been a question of rank.
-
Here a tentsuki maedate. This one dates from the momoyama period. Sorry for the publicity, it’s the only picture I have on my Ipad.
-
picture, yes, the kabuto is from the hand of Munehide, menpo Munesumi. An all original matching set.
-
Another typical Kaga feature is the lack of hinges. Nice dou.

Is this,the link between the magnificent 7 and the 7 samurai? ;—)

Nick, can you send me a pdf? thanks! -
Some were given to non-Japanese officials too.
-
Hi Tengu, these armors were often a gift from a lord to their higher officials. Certainly not for low ranking servants.
