Handmade Life-Size Yoroi，Red Arima Clan Samurai Armor Set with Kuro Kuwagata Helmet

Background History:
The Arima Clan (有马氏) originated from Fujiwara Sumitomo and was founded in the 12th century by Arima Tsunezumi. The name 'Arima' means 'with horse,' which reflects their early reputation for cavalry warfare. As the Portuguese arrived in Japan and began spreading Christianity, the Arima Clan received military supplies and weapons from the Portuguese, significantly enhancing their military strength. Due to their Christianization and the support from the Portuguese, the Arima Clan played a key role in the unification of Japan, particularly by siding with Toyotomi Hideyoshi. The Taisho (commander) samurai directly followed the orders of their Daimyo, directing the subordinate Gashira samurai to lead the Arima Kachi Samurai into battle.
The Arima Clan’s unique military strategies, combined with their access to advanced weaponry, allowed them to dominate key battles, especially during Toyotomi Hideyoshi's campaigns. Though the clan gradually faded into history, their influence in the Sengoku period remains significant and memorable.
