Red Sparkle Lacquered Saya 赤闪光塗

Handcrafted Red Sparkle Lacquered Saya with Natural Horn Fittings｜Koshirae-Grade Finish

This handcrafted saya features a Red Sparkle Lacquer (赤ラメ塗) finish—a deep crimson lacquer base enriched with fine reflective particles. Under light, the surface shimmers with metallic brilliance, shifting subtly between red and wine tones. The effect is elegant yet vivid, giving the saya a refined modern aesthetic while echoing the traditional allure of red lacquer.

The koiguchi (mouth), kurigata (cord knob), and kojiri (end cap) are crafted from polished natural horn, providing both structural durability and organic beauty. Each saya is individually handmade, ensuring precise proportions, visual harmony, and long-lasting quality. The overall presentation is radiant, contemporary, yet firmly rooted in traditional craftsmanship—perfect for mounting in a complete koshirae or appreciated as a lacquered art object.

The saya shown in the photos is sized for a katana, but wakizashi and tanto sizes are also available, all at the same price.
