Own a rare and deeply historic artifact: an authentic Japanese flag recovered from World War II, beautifully preserved and framed for display. These flags, known as good luck flags (yosegaki hinomaru), were traditionally inscribed by family and friends with blessings, prayers, and personal messages for the soldier who carried it.
This particular flag bears such inscriptions, along with the haunting presence of the original owner’s bloodstains — a reminder of the human cost of war. This piece is not only an extraordinary collectible but also a solemn symbol of history, sacrifice, and remembrance. It pairs perfectly with the authentic samurai swords featured in our auction, creating a unique and powerful display for collectors, historians, or anyone who appreciates artifacts of profound significance.
