This is a pair of unsigned menuki from the Edo period, featuring a Rinbo (wheel of dharma) design. Crafted from suhage (plain copper) with a high-relief carving, the gilding is in good condition, and the undulations of the pattern are clearly felt. When mounted on a tsuka, they provide a suitable presence, tightening the overall koshirae and making for a truly striking piece.
