Kaku-gata tsuba with waves and bamboo - origin and mei help needed


Recommended Posts

Posted

Found this in an odd little shop in Himeji. Would anyone be able to help with the mei and any thoughts on the origins? 

It is iron, with a nice wave pattern, which seems to have silver highlights (which are a bit faded on the omote side, more visible on the ura), and bamboo or reeds in gold. But, that’s all I can say for now.
