The artistic frame of the Japanese sword is a unique phenomenon in decorative and applied art.
This is not just a beautiful design of the blade and scabbard, it is a synthesis of exquisite design and jewelry with the history and culture of Japan.
The objects that make up the frame of the sword are the object of study and collecting. The first part of the book contains information about materials and technologies used in the manufacture of sword frame. A detailed review of the schools of masters who worked in this area is given.
In the second part, the catalog of the sword frame is presented. The plots depicted on them reflect the mythology of Japan, legends about the great warriors and poets, the plant and animal world of the country of the rising sun, its customs, holidays and household items.
In a word, the whole world of the samurai is located on the frame of his sword.
Available presentation and rich illustrative material make the book equally interesting for both specialists and a wide range of readers who are indifferent to the thousand -year history of the Japanese sword - the spiritual symbol of samurai. Japanese poems are translated by V. Markova
