Horse and gourd themed tsuba
Inspired by a series of recent unexpected events, I decided to work on this project. It refers to the sennin Chokwaro summoning a horse from his gourd and the expression 'as unexpected as a horse from a gourd.'
The pictures follow the project through the various stages.

A very good display of how the individual pieces of a japanese blade can be a art on its own, I am glad I found this website.
