Trivia

  • A Kanmuri is the formal head attire for Shinto priests, and is worn for important ritual occasions.
  • This very formal hat dates back to the Heian period, from the late 8th century to the end of the 12th century. Originally worn by the nobility on formal occasions, the kanmuri is now part of traditional Shinto priests' clothing.
