Sakura (桜) means “cherry blossoms. I chose this theme for this collection, to celebrate the arrival of spring and beautiful days, giving a nod to this emblematic time of year in Japan. The cherry blossom. The collection consists of 8 pieces, 3 of which have a saya matching the handle. In the handles we find aluminum honeycomb to bring a link with spring; in the saya I included dried cherry blossoms. The emblematic colors of this collection are white, red, pink / fuchsia, orange and yellow.
