Spartancrest Posted April 1, 2022 Report Posted April 1, 2022 They are positive resin impressions of various small fittings, known as Yanigata. like having a 3D reference of finished works. This site has many examples and good information. https://tsubakansho.com/ There are published examples that are clearly labeled with the names of the makers: If you want to know what work your ancestor did - better than a drawing or a description! 2 Quote
