    Description
    This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

    Type: Tsuba (鍔)
    Diameter: 88 mm
    Weight: 191 g
    Main material: Iron (tetsu), dark patina

    Ornamentation: Gold inlays (probably in nunome zōgan, a gold leaf inlay technique)

    Motif: Stylized arabesques and leaves (kikyō or karakusa, a very common plant motif during the Edo period)
    Shape: Maru-gata (round)
    Openings: Nakago-ana (central hole): for the blade's tang Kozuka-ana and kogai-ana (side holes): for the small knife
    The karakusa (唐草) motif—vine scroll or arabesque—is common in decorative tsuba from the Edo period (1603–1868).
    The finely hammered gold inlays and raised borders are reminiscent of the Edo Kinko (金工) or Higo style, depending on the region of production.
    More specifically, this very delicate goldwork may evoke the Mito or Nara schools, active in the 18th–19th centuries.
