This plain black lacquered saya with textured patination has soft, elegant curves.

It has been fitted with a silver ring at the back to enable it to be hung on the wall, as well as a removable waterproof copper lining where the halberd blade once was.

Such ‘ichirin-sashi’ (single bloom vases) look sensational hung on a plain white wall with a single hanging branch.
