ZIPANG from Samurai Collection

Enjoy dressing 1.8L Sake bottles with authentic Samurai armors

"Tiger of Kai Province" who led the most powerful cavalry of the Sengoku Period with his "Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain" banner

Shingen Takeda was a warlord of Kai Province (present-day Yamanashi Prefecture). His "Undefeatable Takeda Cavalry" was said to be the best in the Sengoku period. When Shingen was young he banished his father who was violent from his territory, and he also took control of the clan and had a great influence on others. He was believed to be best suited to take control of the whole country. He was also the man who Nobunaga Oda feared most. He had many capable retainers, especially his "Twenty-Four Generals of Shingen Takeda" who were the elite warlords that worked as aides to Shingen and were closely united. Shingen never had his own castle and placed value on people. He used to say, "The people are your moat, your stone walls, and your castle." His battle strategy "Fu-rin-ka-zan" ("Wind-Forest-Fire-Mountain" was successful mostly due to his having the most powerful cavalry in Japan.


ZIPANG has made a detailed miniature of the armor worn by the legendary Shingen Takeda, called "Bottle Armor."This fine piece of work features the characteristic long white hair on the Kabuto helmet, elaborate "Shishigami-maedate" front decoration, and Takedabishi crest of the Takeda clan. These details represent Takeda Shingen who is known as one of the best warlords in Japanese history. You can enjoy your favorite sake while remembering the heroic stories of men who fought during the Sengoku period.


Japanese food has been attracting attention as "Washoku," or traditional Japanese cuisine was recently added to the UNESCO world intangible heritage list. Our product blends two different internationally-respected “Made in Japan” items which are traditional Japanese armor and sake. This reasonably priced, small beautiful armor is perfect as a gift not only for Tango no Sekku (Children's Day) but also for congratulating on the birth of a baby or on a marriage, or for praying for prosperity. We strive to make replica armor that can be gifted for various life events.
