Fitting out your own home with Japanese decorations has always been a sign of timeless style.
This is because the decorative pieces, which originate from Japanese culture, all have a centuries-old tradition and do not emulate any current trends.
In this article, we want to look at the most popular Japanese decorative elements. Of course, as sword fans, we will not ignore the possibility of adding decorative swords to your own home furnishings.
Tatami mats create a relaxed atmosphere
If you want an authentic Japanese atmosphere, the traditional tatami mats are the perfect choice.
These consist of rice straw surrounded by woven bindweed. This creates a firm base, but at the same time invites you to sit comfortably, which is particularly important in a culture where sitting on the floor is a tradition.
But even today, it is a pleasant floor covering that does not appear as "cold" as classic tiles or parquet and thus lays the foundation for a feel-good atmosphere.
Interesting for sword fans: Tatami Omote mats are used today for the Tameshigiri cutting exercises used.
Japanese paper lamps add a certain exoticism
Who doesn't know them? Japanese paper lamps provide a pleasant, indirect light that is thoroughly cosy.
The famous lamps are available in all kinds of colours and shapes.
Authentic decorative swords symbolise the samurai era
Of course, the highly symbolic samurai swords should not be missing from a proper Japanese interior. Nowadays, of course, as a harmless decorative piece with a blunt blade. According to tradition, the samurai always kept their swords with them so that they were always ready to hand in case of an emergency.
Nowadays, they complete a successful interior or provide a targeted accent.
You can find a selection of decorative swords in our shop. Beside individual swordsyou will also receive Sets of two and Sets of three consisting of katana, wakizashi and tanto.
