Kazutoshi Sugiura (1938- ) has created his own very distinct and popular style in the art of silkscreen printing. All of his work realistically depict various flowers, in particular the iris. A world-renowned artist who started his artistic journey with the study of traditional Japanese style painting, he is famous for his bold and beautiful flowers set against a rich, gold-leaf background which has become the hallmark of his art. This is achieved through a complex process of silkscreen techniques. His designs have an immediate appeal and are timeless, elegant and serene.

Tsuba are sword guards which were used to protect the hand during combat. According to Japanese tradition, the purity, strength and resilience of the sword blade reflected the very soul of the samurai. Not surprisingly, the materials and workmanship that went into sword furnishings were of the highest possible quality.
