Q854. Iron tsuba. 7.4 x 7.5 x .5 cm. The nakago hitsu-ana is .8 x 2.8 cm. Cool design here; it almost comes across as modern art. 4 birds, beak to tail, fly up and over one side; cloud forms inhabit the other. The soft metal pillows in the ryo hitsu are a nice touch. Excellent condition; quite nice. $325.
