Pine and Ember Katana
Pine and Ember Katana
The Pine and Ember Katana pairs a green tsuka with an orange, wood-grain saya to create a warm two-tone mount. The clay-tempered patterned blade sits between those surfaces, keeping the colour story connected to the steel rather than isolated in the fittings.
Copper fittings add a small metallic bridge between the green and orange elements. The palette and wood-grain treatment are the reliable markers of this piece; no additional floral subject is needed.
