Handmade Life Size Yoroi,Golden Takeda Clan Samurai Armor with White Yak Haired Helmet

Background History:

The Takeda clan, which ruled the Kai Province for over 400 years from the 12th to 16th century, is one of the most influential and powerful families in feudal Japan. Known for their unmatched cavalry charge, the Takeda clan earned the nickname 'Red Army' and followed the motto 'Loyalty and Fraternity.' Their battle banner, inscribed with 'Fu Rin Ka Zan' (Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain), symbolizes the qualities of being 'swift as the wind, silent as the forest, intrusive as fire, and immovable as a mountain.' Takeda Shingen, one of Japan's most famous warlords, played a significant role in the clan’s rise to power, leading many renowned battles, including the epic Battles of Kawanakajima. However, after Shingen's death, the Takeda clan suffered a steep decline, particularly following their defeat at the Battle of Nagashino in 1575. Despite their fall, the legacy of the Takeda clan continued to influence Japan's military strategies and culture.
