SWORD

Object/Artifact

-

St. Joseph Museums

The image features a miniature decorative samurai sword resting on a textured surface, possibly bubble wrap. The sword has intricate detailing on its hilt and guard, with a small tassel hanging from the pommel. A string is attached to the sword, holding a white tag that reads "Sword / Samurai" along with what appears to be catalog numbers or identifiers, such as "1089" and "GA173B." The tag is attached just below the hilt with a string that is looped around the handle. The background consists of evenly spaced bubbles, contributing a subtle texture to the composition, contrasting against the metallic and ornamental details of the sword.
