I don't think there is anything that is full of Japanese aesthetic sense like armor and helmet.In the past, as a symbol of status, honor and dignity, armor had various thoughts.Also, when people wanted to achieve great success in their lives, they donated specially beautifully finished Kacchu (armor) to shrines and other places as proof of their great wishes.These armors were not only functional, but also crafted and crafted to the point where they were out of sight, seeking elegance.
