Iron Bushu School tsuba decorated with sakura and waves. This tsuba is not signed however I have found very similar tsuba signed "Bushu Masatoshi", picture of which is at the bottom of section with photos. While I am not sure If Masatoshi made it, it definitely points out to him or someone closely related, like master or student.
Masatoshi was a student of Masatoyo. He worked for the Tsuyama fief of Mimasaka Province but from Edo Yushima. There are tsuba extant of his student "Toshimasa" that were made after Masatoshi work.
Tsuba made if iron with gold and silver inlay.
Size: 82 mm x 75 mm x 4 mm
Made in Edo period.
