Shakudo nanako kozuka signed "Yanagawa Naotoki", unfortunately the signature looks nothing like verified examples so it has to be considered a gimei. Great quality item with dark black shakudo with nanako ground. Crane itself looks like it is made of solid gold, it might also be a thick gold foil in perfect condition. Kozuka feels heavy and really elegant. Made in later edo peirod.

Without one, the attribution is the seller’s own assessment and has not been independently verified — treat it with caution and ask the dealer about certification before buying.
