Description

Happuri (open face armored mask), is the term for a style of facial armor worn by the early samurai warrior class and their retainers.Ā  Happuri were crafted from leather or iron in an upside down U shape.Ā  This mengu (face armor mask) protects the forehead and cheeks from attacks and the shinobi-no o (kabuto cord), without hindering the warriors vision or breathing. It was a common mengu (facial armor) for all warriors of the time from Heian to the mid part of the Muromachi Period (794 – 1450 AD), then made popular again in the Edo era. Ā This Happuri is a traditional design, copied from an original Heian Era facial armor, and looks great worn in the field or displayed one of our menpo stands.Ā Ā 

Iron Mountain Armory crafts their samurai armor from traditional designs in order to reproduce the most historical accurate traditional armor for the modern warrior. This happuri mengu makes a perfect addition to any SCA, LARP, Cosplay or collection needs. This iconic facial armor makes a great addition to any collection or unique gift, displayed in your dojo, home, office or studio.

  • Full sized and functional.
  • Offered in a variety of paint colors.
