NihontoWatchNihontoWatchEnjoying the atmosphere of Chinese poetry and classics became a trend centered around intellectuals during the mid-Edo period, as peace continued. Nanban tsuba were tsuba that became popular within that trend. The ho-o is the king of birds and the kirin is the king of beasts, and they are imaginary creatures of ancient China often depicted as a pair. Both are said to appear as a precursor to good things happening. The size is standard and the weight is on the light side. Those who strongly desire a balance point close to the hand need to be cautious.
