     First and foremost, apologies for any apparent ignorance in advance.

 

     I've seem to have come to a head on information regarding how exactly the Tachiuchi segment of the ebu is constructed.  The Dogane in all examples I've been able to observe appear to be slid into place along the shaft and affixed into place by some combination of lacquered rattan or cordage.  But, the wider segments between Dogane appear to be a different material proud of the parent wood. are those segments mottled lacquer or some kind of adhered and bound cloth?  Any info would be a great help 

     Images from imgur are for an ebu that lead me to inquire at all.  The overall length, the general appearance and fitment draw to question it's authenticity, but I'm just as confident in being wrong as I could be right.  I'm more than happy to provide any and all info requested, or better images if needed.
