NARA

"A small iron (tetsu-ji) tsuba of an angler ("Tsuri Jinbutsu") with a fishing rod. Possibly along the Uji-gawa river and close to the Ogura-ike lake. This area was known as the best place to enjoy the landscape overlooking the scenic river and lake.
There is delicate inlay of the chrysanthemums, foliage, and the fishing pole, all in gold. The intire scene is very serene." (Long)
