Description
Fuchi kashira signed Hikone Soten. Shakudo nanako make up the surface with a design of a warrior under the pine trees. Most likely this a story from the Minamoto and the Taira or something similar.
Work is done well, good use of gold for the main subject with shakudo high relief carving as well. Since there is no slot for a kozuka, it may have been used for a small katana.
