Can this tsuba be attributed to a group?

Hi everyone.

 

Recently received this tsuba which was inexpensive but I liked the design. Question. Is there a group of makers and time period it can be attributed to? 7.8cm x 7.6cm x3mm There was what looks like a 2 character mei that has worn away and unreadable. Thanks in advance. Mark

Nara?

Hi Grev. Thanks for responding. I think this should be filed in the ‘too hard basket’. Originally I thought it was a little unique but searching around I found a number of tsuba with this large floral display. Happy to put this to rest. Thanks again.

 

I did find this one Aoi Art had once, the technique of applying the design and gilt is similar.
