A very nice ko-kinko sanmai tsuba with beautiful patina and copious amount of black lacquer. 

 

The tsuba is made from three layers  of yamagane - a core and two sheets finished in the same manner, with a motif of waves. Now, I have seen many such tsuba, at some point I owned three nearly identical sanmai guards that must have come from the same workshop. They were smaller and didn't have the presence or the lacquer remnants of this one. 

 

 

7 x 7.5 x .35 cm at the fukurin.
