Sword Guard (Tsuba)
Dark brown square-shaped sword guard with rounded edges and two cutout sections in the center; one oval and one more rounded at the bottom. A mountain peak is at the top left, with a gray and white color; gold inlays depict wavy lines extending from the peak. On the right side, two gold dragons are positioned; one larger than the other. A black oval inlay is on the left side. The background features etched designs resembling waves, with gold dots and a dark green branch-like pattern at the bottom.
