New Cufflinks by Symbiotique!!

Menuki are ornaments usually used in Samurai swords on the tsuka (sword handle) to fit into the palm for a better grip. Menuki often display the amazing skill of their maker and can be compared to pieces of jewelry, which is why we decided to use them to create a unique set of cufflinks.

These originals from the Edo period (1615 to 1868) will be carefully molded to create a pair of cufflinks. The Menuki will then be returned to their owner in their original state for future use with a Samurai sword where they belong. Most Samurai sword fittings convey strong meanings through their design, as well as tales of Japanese society, and are often used as powerful lucky charms related directly to the owner of the sword.

The Dragon Menuki represent humility, courage, strength and can ward off evil spirits, which as you could imagine is well suited for a Samurai.
