An authentic samurai collector's item from Edo-period Japan.
After a century and a half of warfare, the peace of the Edo period transformed every aspect of life in Japan. A strict hierarchy established the samurai as part of the upper class, with all the attendant benefits but also strict rules on how to conduct oneself, down to how to dress.
This specimen is an authentic ~1cm swatch of fabric from a late Edo period samurai kataginu. This was a formal jacket that was part of the dress code of a samurai at court. The specimen comes affixed to an informational display card with the Mini Museum Seal of Authenticity.
