Sword Guard (Tsuba) with Dragonfly

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sword guard, titled "Sword Guard (Tsuba) with Dragonfly" and created by an unspecified artist, is a circular, dark brown metal object with a textured surface. The guard features a central, elongated, teardrop-shaped hole and a design of a dragonfly on the top left, crafted from the same metal. The dragonfly design consists of four oval-shaped cutouts, accompanied by a small circular hole. The background of the image transitions from black at the top to dark gray at the bottom.
