Bamboo, which withstands the harshness of winter and grows straight, gracefully and orderly, is a popular design in Japan. This openwork tsuba dipicts a bamboo that stretches in the middle, and the bamboo that spreads out to the left and right to withstand the weight of the snow, making the two hitsu-ana/holes into snow rings. A well-designed tsuba. |
