Description: Hello dear customers for sal a single pice antique Edo period Japanese Samurai sword decoration Menunki. Solid copper with fire gilding fragments. The menuki representing two cows. In addition, the Japanese name of cow “牛” is also written as “丑.” There is the letter “紐,” which means string in Japanese. Now you would notice that “丑” is used in “紐.” Therefore, there is an idea that considers “丑” has the meaning such as connect (tie) or take (grasp). Based on these ideas, Samurais might have associated this animal design with the meaning such as “form a connection” or “grab the victory.” It is excellent preserved for its age. Beautiful craftsmanship. Found in private collection in collection in Paris.Measures:29mm x 14mm x 4mm thickness Weight 4gr. ========================== Auction terms and conditions.
