Blossom in Ink Katana
Blossom in Ink Katana
The Blossom in Ink Katana carries pale floral decoration across a dark lacquered saya. The contrast between the quiet ground and the lighter blossoms gives the piece its seasonal character, while the bo-hi keeps the patterned blade visually balanced.
Antique carved copper fittings continue the aged finish at the guard and handle. Its pale-on-dark floral system gives the katana a distinct seasonal character.
