This item was obtained several years ago from an old house on a worksite. A Google search indicates it's an ornament modeled after the helmet of the Sengoku-era warlord, Shikanosuke Yamanaka. It's made of metal and is very heavy. I will also include the tatami mat it's displayed on, so you can display it as is. ⚠ Please be aware that I will be unable to ship this item immediately until August 17th. I will ship it on August 18th. Please understand that this item has been stored at home by a private individual, so there may be some minor dirt or scratches that are not immediately noticeable. I will ship it in simple packaging, but I will take measures to prevent it from getting wet. I am not sure whether it will be shipped via Rakuraku Mercari or Yu-Yu Mercari.
