Description from the seller
This is a set of five traditional Japanese sword fitting accessories, originally made as parts of koshirae (Japanese sword mountings).
The group includes small components such as fuchi (hilt collar), kashira (pommel cap), sword rings and decorative fittings, crafted in mixed metals. Each piece shows signs of age, surface patina, and hand workmanship, reflecting their original functional use and long history.
Such fittings were created not only for practical purposes but also as expressions of craftsmanship and aesthetic taste. Today, these small sword accessories are appreciated as collectible objects, suitable for study, display, or as reference material for Japanese arms and fittings enthusiasts.
This set is offered as a group and is ideal for collectors, restorers, or those interested in traditional Japanese metalwork.
