Tsuba with cranes silver
A great symbol of fidelity and longevity
The Tsuba is actually the hand
shield from the Samurai swords .
In the 17-18th century when there were periods of peace in Japan, the
Tsuba, like the Samurai sword itself, became a decorational symbol used
in various ceremonies. Skilled Artists and jewelers produced
breathtaking models according to demand. The Tsuba reflected Japanese tradition and included
traditional Japanese geometric models. The Tsubas included images from
nature in accordance with Haiku poetry that describes a moment in time
and traditional symbols that reflect courage, fidelity, diligence and
clarity of thought.
The Tsubas from my point of view represent the symbol of “The Diamond sword ”
from Zen philosophy. The very sword that metaphorically cuts the world
of illusion, the superfluous thoughts and feelings that mislead
the human being and prevent him from seeing and accepting the reality
as it is.
The Tsuba is a symbol of courage ,
fidelity and diligence .
The
Cranes symbolize fidelity and longevity .
