The tsuba squarish guard at the end of the grip of bladed Japanese weapons, like the katana and its various declinations. During the Muromachi period (1333--1573) and the Momoyama period (1573--1603) Tsuba were more for functionality than for decoration, being made of stronger metals and designs. During the Edo period (1603--1868) there was peace in Japan so tsuba became more ornamental and made of less practical metals such as gold. Tsuba are usually finely decorated, and nowadays are collectors' items. Tsuba were made by whole dynasties of craftsmen whose only craft was making tsuba. They were usually lavishly decorated. In addition to being collectors items, they were often used as heirlooms, passed from one generation to the next. Tsuba can be found in a variety of metals and alloys. // [ From central bridge of TOKYO ] camera, download, composition, Edit by ray sat [ Ray_Sat-ouci ] TokyoSilver MixMediaPrints,VidoEditoophoron, GoldSilverSmithing,Tennkoku, 《医》 AutoimmuneVidoEditOophoritis.
