Armour. I am a firm believer in the phrase ‘a picture speaks a thousand words’, thus I have deliberately kept the descriptions brief, and concentrated on good photography.CLICK AND READ

About me: Based in the centre of Kyoto, the old capital of Japan for over 1,200 years I am an antique dealer of over 20 years experience working in Japan, specializing in high quality Japanese arms and armour. During my career, I have been fortunate enough to access an unrivalled line of supply of spectacular pieces from old collections and museums both domestically in Japan and also throughout the World. My client list includes the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Royal Armouries in UK as well as a host of other more private institutions across the US, Asia, Europe and Australia.

Until now I have kept rather to myself, dealing in a very private manner. However, in 2006 I was persuaded to exhibit in the International Asian Art Fair at the Seventh Regiment Armoury in NY, my pieces were very well received and I had very positive write ups in the New York Times, the New York Social Diary and the Antiques Trade Gazette to mention but a few. During this event, so many people asked me why I did not have a website, so after much consideration, I decided it was time to join the 21st Century and finally open up a site on line. So here we are!

 

This three piece set is widely believed to be the finest of its kind in the World

WARNING: Please be advised that a website going by the name of www.armor8.com who calls himself 'Black Samurai' has illegally downloaded images from both my Japanese armour mask gallery as well as my Japanese helmet gallery and is trying to pass them off as his own. The other pieces he has, have likewise been plagiarised from other legitimate sites. Both his address and credentials are also completely bogus. It is a Chinese based site and anyone foolish enough to attempt to purchase from this individual will be defrauded of their money.
