This mumei tsuba from the mid to late Edo period features a design of egrets among reeds, symbolizing tranquility and elegance. The iron plate is skillfully used to depict a dynamic scene of four egrets, with silver inlay for their bodies and gold inlay for their eyes, creating a striking contrast. The intricate details and thoughtful composition, including a pair of egrets representing marital harmony, make this a captivating piece for appreciation.
