Also known as Japanese armor, it was a type of armor in Japan during the Edo period (1603-1868). It is part of the collection of Romero Ortiz, and its 1888 catalog is related to the background of Daniel Dato and the Philippine War. In ancient Japan, warriors or samurai were military elites who served daimyos or feudal lords. Their armor, as the foundation of their defensive clothing, consisted of different components covering the entire body, which evolved into forms of great display and precious decoration, especially during the Edo period. It is currently housed in the National Army Museum of Spain.
