[Caracal]

Here is the description:
Kabuto helmet with yoroi mask, Edo (1603-1868).
Kabuto with a moon-shaped datemono. Menpo men yoroi with mustache. Black lacquered. Shikoro with four slats laced with sugake-odoshi. Yoroi mask with red lacquered inside.

Kind of momonari-shape, IMHO!

Momonari Kabuto, it seems freshly painted (restored?) I wonder what shape it might be as someone paid almost 4000 euros for it.
Interesting if anyone has knowledge of this type of helmet.

 

I've never seen one like that before, but you never know.

Made for reenactment?
