About the Item

A Yoroi Dorei is a traditional Japanese clay bell shaped like a suit of samurai armor. These bells are often handcrafted and painted with intricate detail, symbolizing strength, protection, and bravery. Originally used as charms or decorative items, Yoroi Dorei are believed to ward off evil spirits and bring good fortune. When shaken, the bell produces a soft, pleasant sound. They are popular as souvenirs, especially in regions with historical samurai culture.
