A Sharingan with three tomoe.
A tomoe or tomoye (archaic) (巴) is a Japanese abstract shape (i.e. a swirl) that resembles a comma or the usual form of magatama. Tomoe are usually seen in a design of three known as mitsudomoe (三つ巴).
They form the pattern of the Sharingan and the Cursed Seal of Heaven which Orochimaru placed on Sasuke Uchiha and Anko Mitarashi. It has also appeared in the Ten-Tails going in three separate orbits around the pupil, and on Madara Uchiha's Gunbai. Orochimaru also summons a three-headed snake who has tomoes on its head. Orochimaru himself wore blue tomoe-shaped earrings, and the magatama earrings worn by Susanoo are in the shape of tomoe. The Yasaka no Magatama technique used by Itachi Uchiha's Susanoo is a giant shuriken in the shape of a mitsudomoe. The Kohaku clan's insignia is a futatsudomoe (tomoe in a design of two), while the Shirogane clan's is a golden mitsudomoe.
