Chrysanthemum crane, Iron, shakudo (a soft copper and gold alloy), This Kyo-sukashi (Kyoto openwork) style tsuba takes the form of a tsuru maru (crane circle). At the center is the nakago-ana, an opening through which the sword passes, with traces of sekigane (plugs added to fit the tsuba to a sword) made of shakudo (a soft copper and gold alloy). The surrounding seppadai (flat oval area) forms the body of the crane; it is elegantly long and narrow, with a migaki (burnished) surface. The head of the crane has kebori (line carving). Flanking the body are ryo-hitsu, openings for the kozuka (utility knife) and the kogai (skewer tool). At right is sashi ura, the side which faces the blade, whose opening takes the hangetsu-kei (half moon) shape. Opposite is sashi omote, the side which faces the sword hilt; its tri-lobed opening is of the suhama type, and symbolically represents the coastline of Horai, the holy island of the Immortals. The surrounding openwork forms symmetrical feathers with a sense of movement., Japan, 17th century, knotted, knitted and crocheted textiles, Decorative Arts, Tsuba, Tsuba.
