"Iron
ji-sukashi tsuba with a design of a bridge for Koto. 'Nobility' is the
keyword to describe this design. It is aesthetically satisfying in every
detail. The surface of the plate is splendid and appears to be a little
wet. The luster of the patina is in tune with the softly structured
surface. Wonderful tekkotsu is to been seen in the rim. Dates ca. 1500-1550." (Haynes & Long) |
