kissakai Posted July 29, 2020 Report Posted July 29, 2020 I saw this on a friends kozuka and wondered if there was any meaning to it I can see what looks vaguely like the dragon and tama jewel Quote
Babu Posted July 29, 2020 Report Posted July 29, 2020 I have a kogatana with the very same and it's just a preference selected by the buyer. Some wanted a smiths mei others a design. I've got one coming with a scene from a noh play on it. I don't believe that it holds any more relevance/significance than personal taste but could be wrong. Quote
C0D Posted July 29, 2020 Report Posted July 29, 2020 It's a kurikara (倶梨伽羅) horimono, more info about it here https://markussesko.com/2015/03/18/kantei-1-sugata-4/ Quote
Spartancrest Posted July 29, 2020 Report Posted July 29, 2020 I have this image of a dragon wrapped around a 'trident', similar design. Quote
kissakai Posted July 29, 2020 Author Report Posted July 29, 2020 Thanks for info Lastly I wondered what the symbols on the left hand side may mean Quote
