early Muromachi (c. 1390-1430)
This is a refined Kyo-sukashi tsuba from Kyoto, known for its elegance through negative space. The openwork forms a layered lattice with radiating structural ribs and softly notched cells, reminiscent of kikkō or a stylized web. The iron surface shows a quiet, mature patina, and the overall finish avoids any coarse tekkotsu emphasis.
