Hōjō Ujiyasu Samurai Armor — Indigo Laced, Full Life-Size Set

Hōjō Ujiyasu ruled the Kantō plain from Odawara Castle and was known as the Lion of Sagami. In 1546 he broke a besieging army roughly ten times the size of his own with a night attack at Kawagoe — one of the three great surprise attacks of Japanese military history — and he spent the next twenty-five years holding the eastern provinces against Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin at once.

He is said to have carried scars only on the front of his body. Odawara did not fall in his lifetime.

The armor is built for a defensive commander rather than a cavalry charge: a dark lacquered cuirass with dense blue and white lacing, understated gilt at the edges, and a helmet with a laced neck guard that flares wide. There is nothing decorative here that does not also make the silhouette read at distance.
