Iron Tsuba Decorated with Dragon and Waves

Regular price $2,200.00 Sale

Iron tsuba decorated with dragon and waves. Design of this tsuba with really high relief is really interesting and makes a great impression. What is also unique is that head of the dragon is inlaid/attached to the tsuba. In some places the line of added material is well visible in others I can't see it at all.  

Made of iron with gold and silver inlay. Droplets are made of solid metal, while other parts are covered with nunome zogan. 

Size: 79 mm x 76 mm x 5 mm 

Made in late Edo or Meiji period.
