SATOR

The sword that becomes a way.

Anello Sator-Ring-DECEM

Il quadrato del Sator è un enigma che ci viene consegnato dal tempo, e il tempo, a sua volta, è il vero enigma.

Protection

 

Wearing Bushidō means embodying discipline and presence: a talisman reminding us that true strength comes from mastering oneself before mastering the sword.

Origin

 

Forged in silver, the Bushidō ring evokes the Kabuto helmet and the severe lines of samurai armor. Every detail is a tribute to the warrior’s pragmatism and the free mind that Musashi raised to philosophy.

Duality
 

Musashi was both rōnin and artist, master duelist and Zen painter. Bushidō contains this tension between war and contemplation, between the clash of blades and the silence of the void.

The Hidden Side

Every DECEM relic lives on two planes.
On the outside, the face the world can see.
On the inside, the sculpted secret: symbols invisible to others, yet destined for the Custodian alone.
This is the Dark Side method — the rite of engraving the hidden soul of every creation.

Book of Water (水, Sui)

Musashi wrote The Book of Five Rings in 1645, shortly before his death. It is divided into five chapters, each named after an element of Japanese cosmology:

  • Book of Earth (地, Chi)
    • Foundations of strategic thought
    • The “Way of the Sword” as a discipline of life
    • Importance of posture, firmness, stability

  • Book of Water (水, Sui)
    • Adaptability as the key: water takes the shape of its container
    • Sword techniques, fluidity of movement
    • The mind must remain calm yet ready to change

  • Book of Fire (火, Hi)
    • The art of conflict and battle
    • Rhythm, timing, aggression, intensity
    • Harnessing tension and energy in direct confrontation

  • Book of Wind (風, Kaze)
    • Critical analysis of other schools of swordsmanship
    • Differences with Musashi’s style (Niten Ichi-ryū, the “School of Two Swords”)
    • “Wind” as the traditions of others that may mislead

  • Book of Void (空, Kū)
    • The most philosophical and spiritual level
    • “Void” as supreme understanding beyond technique and form
    • Wisdom that allows one to intuit without thinking, to see without seeing

🔲 Il Quadrato del Sator

Cinque parole, incise in un quadrato perfetto, che attraversano secoli e culture senza mai perdere la loro forza.


Un palindromo che si legge in ogni direzione, restando immutato: un enigma che custodisce se stesso.

SATOR – il seminatore, il creatore
AREPO – parola oscura, forse un nome, forse equilibrio nascosto
TENET – egli tiene, sostiene, al centro del quadrato forma una croce
OPERA – l’opera, il compito, il gesto che plasma
ROTAS – le ruote, il tempo che gira senza fine

Il suo senso ultimo resta velato, ma proprio in questo mistero trova la sua forza:
un sigillo eterno che sfida il tempo.

Letto in ogni direzione, il Sator rimane immutato.
Un enigma che sfida il tempo e custodisce la sua forza.

The  Way

 

Not ornament. It is discipline and philosophy. It does not dress you: it shapes you.
Bushidō reminds us that the sword is the Way, and the Way is life.

The Spirit on Watch

 

This is not just a ring. It is the echo of the strategic mind that knows no defeat, the gaze of the samurai who sees in the void the path to freedom.

Real jewels of craftsmanship, perfect in every detail

It is fundamental to me that you receive precisely what you desire, allowing you to fully express your personality through this jewel.

That is why my guarantee covers:

Ritualized Shipping

Every Relic leaves the Temple with all the necessary care.
Its journey is safeguarded with tracking and guarantees: if anything should happen along the way, I will personally ensure a new Relic reaches you.

Threshold of Reflection

A Relic must reflect who you are. If it does not, you may return or exchange it: I will only ask you to cover the return shipping costs. No barriers, only sincerity.

Warranty of Metal and Fire

Every creation carries the certainty of its materials: 925 silver, 18k gold, and certified precious stones. The Master’s Seal safeguards their authenticity.

Lifetime Custody

A Relic lives with you and crosses through time. Should it ever require care or repair, the Temple will remain open: you may always bring it back to be reborn whole.

proporzioni perfette

Non esiste una misura standard.

Ogni anello cambia proporzione, spessore e simmetria per restare armonico sul dito del suo Custode.

Sator — Taglie a confronto.jpeg

La Capsa, Il Custode Silenzioso

Non è un semplice packaging.
Ogni reliquia DECEM riposa in una Capsa: una custodia rituale in pelle, pensata per proteggere e onorare ciò che contiene.
All’interno, il metallo dorme fino al momento del Risveglio, quando il Custode compie il proprio rito d’accesso.
Aprirla non è un gesto qualunque: è l’attimo in cui l’attesa diventa rivelazione.
Ogni Capsa è diversa, come ogni reliquia. Nessuna entra in questo mondo senza la sua dimora.
