Vtg Japanese Boys' Day Samurai Battle Surcoat

This is a vintage Japanese jinbaori, a sleeveless coat worn by samurai over their armor on the battlefield. This surcoat is navy with a geometrical abstract gold pattern with orange, white and green details. There are pieces on the front with pictures of Momotaro with his 3 animal companions. This piece can be displayed on the stand instead of a Gogatsu-Ningyo but it is designed to be worn by small children. This jinbaori warrior surcoat comes with a storage box. 

Gogatsu-Ningyo (May dolls) are amulets wishing for the health and growth of children that are displayed during the Boys' Festival. Other items such as armor decorations, helmet decorations, and warrior dolls (warlords) are also popular.
