Other Info
Cherry blossoms are arranged on a waxed silver-polished (rōgin migaki-ji) sukidashi tsuba. The blossoms are varied in design, and the inlay extends onto the rim, showing a carefully considered and refined composition.The artist, signed Masakatsu, cannot be identified with certainty as there are multiple craftsmen using this name; however, based on the style, it is thought to be the work of a Mito metalworker.This piece passed the Hozon Tosogu shinsa in November 2025.
