Sword Guard (Tsuba)

The image shows a circular metal object with a dark brown color and visible rust spots. The object has three holes: one long, narrow oval-shaped hole in the center and two smaller oval-shaped holes on either side. The surface features an etched design of a branch with leaves on the bottom right. The object, titled "Sword Guard (Tsuba)" and created by an unspecified artist, appears to be made of metal, likely iron or steel, given its rusted appearance.
