C213.  Shibuichi tsuba papered to Ko Kinko.  6 x 6.55 x .45 cm at the riased rim.  The nakago hitsu-ana is .7 x 2.8 cm.  A very intricately carved tsuba with raised edges to leaves and exceptionally fine nanako on the background.  Hozon paper from the NBTHK in 2011.  The seppa-dai is unusual: it is raised with a scalloped edge and punch marks in spirals decoration.  I don’t know which school or group would have done this work but I’ve been told there are at least 2 pieces with similar treatment in issues of Juyo Token Nado Zufu, so maybe someone has the answer.  Condition is excellent.  $900.
