In the 10th century samurai guarding the emperor and aristocrats began to wear colorful armor, reflecting the capital's elegance.

The elaborate armor they commissioned involved dying, weaving, lacquer, and metal artisans. Discover the beauty within samurai armor that is now upheld as the ultimate in craftwork.
