Description

The Yoruba are an African people mainly inhabiting parts of Nigeria, Benin, and Togo, often referred to as Yorubaland.  The Yoruba have traditionally been known as one of the most skilled and productive craftsmen of Africa, working traditionally at such trades as blacksmithing, weaving, leatherworking, glassmaking, and ivory and wood carving.  For the Yoruba people bronze was a rare and expensive material, worshipped by the divine king, Oba.  Many Jewelry and art items were made of bronze since it never rusts and therefore refers to the continuity of the Royal generation. In this tradition, molten bronze is casted into uniquely decorated, handmade molds after which it cools down to form the final shape. Today, this knowledge is still used and passed on from generation to generation. A marvelous, tangible piece of African history and culture.  Yoruba Benin wedding bronze bracelets bangle set for a woman’s dowry gift.

Japanese Samurai Bajo Jingasa (Riding Battle Hat)

Japanese Samurai Bajo Jingasa (Riding Battle Hat)

$814.20
Samurai Bajo Jingasa (Riding Battle Hat) were worn mainly by officers a the end of the Sengoku period (1467-1615) and through the Edo period (1603-1868) and a little after.  Traditionally a defensive helmet, they were allegedly first crafted from wood, leather, lacquered rawhide, then iron and later steel.  The combination of these elements provided a good head protection against sword blows.  The bajo-gasa jingasa are shaped like low round hills, believed to decrease wind resistance while on horseback.  The inside was padded with a cushion liner secured by ribbons that would be tied and secured under the chin. The Jingasa were traditionally lacquered in black and would typically bear the mon (crest) of their clan or that of their unit, allowing forces to be easily identified in the battlefield and from afar.  These mon were often painted in gold color like in this bajogasa for sale. The Samurai bajo-jingasa here is in excellent condition showing the mon (crest) of the Maru Ni Tsuru Gashiwa. It is probably from the late Edo period (mid 19th century).   Dimensions: about 36 cm x 34 cm (14.17 x 13.38 inches)
