Midori : Japanese Fine & Decorative Arts
Midori Presents
Original Presentation Script
Let me unveil the depths of this remarkable Edo Period Samurai Armor. Envisioned in an era when honor defined life, these protection relics tell tales of valor and artistry. Made in Japan, they echo the epoch of samurai rule (1603-1868). The iron composed, leather and silk-bound assembly whispers of meticulous craftsmanship. This suit, like a moving shogun sculpture, reveals a patina reflective of old battles, asserting its grace through aged authenticity. Alas, authenticity has become an elusive grail, as contemporary reproductions lurk, skillfully deceiving the naked eye. Current value at auction is a striking $20,000 to $50,000 for the genuine, while a reproduction fetches a modest $2,000 to $5,000. This Samurai Armor whispers an enduring legacy — an armored narrative of history's chivalry.
