NihontoWatchNihontoWatchAn mumei hamidashi tsuba with a design of waves, attributed to Ko-kinko. On a mokko-gata shakudo ji, waves cascading in multiple layers are depicted with delicate carving across the entire front and back surfaces. By raising crests in various places and layering flowing lines, the movement of the sea surface is skillfully expressed. Gold plating is applied to the inside of the large kozuka-hitsu-ana, and the gold color stands out against the blackish shakudo ji. While it is a work in a style typical of Ko-kinko hamidashi tsuba, the state of preservation is good, making it a piece where one can enjoy a refined, antique flavor.
