Description

JAPAN - Edo Period (1603-1868).
Forged and openwork iron tsuba maru-gata decorated with two interlaced discs inscribed within a circle, kozuka-hitsu hana, and kogai-hitsu hana.
Unsigned.
Wear.
Diameter: 8 cm.

Notes: Among the samurai, the sun and moon held profound symbolic significance, linked to their worldview and the values of bushido. The sun, often associated with Japan itself, represents strength, honor, and clarity of action: it embodies the courage and integrity of the warrior. The moon, more discreet and changeable, symbolizes reflection, introspection, and self-control. Together, they represent the balance sought by the samurai between power and serenity, action and wisdom.
