Handmade Life-Size Tokugawa Clan Samurai Armor – Black & Blue Yoroi

Background History:

The Tokugawa Clan is one of Japan's most influential samurai families, with its origins tracing back to the reign of Emperor Seiwa in the 9th century. The Tokugawa family rose to prominence in the mid-16th century during the Warring States period, eventually gaining immense power under Tokugawa Ieyasu. In 1603, Tokugawa Ieyasu founded the Tokugawa Shogunate, which ruled Japan until 1867. The family’s Three-Lobed Aoi Crest became a symbol of their power, representing their military prowess and cultural legacy.

Tokugawa Ieyasu, one of Japan’s three great unifiers, played a key role in shaping Japan's future. After enduring hardships and battles throughout his early life, Ieyasu emerged victorious in the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600, cementing his rule. This armor is a tribute to the Tokugawa family’s glorious history and the spirit of the samurai, symbolizing the strength and legacy of the Tokugawa era.
