Description

This is a mumei tsuba attributed to Hayashi Shigemitsu, a second-generation maker, modeled after a design by Matashichi. It features a bold composition of chrysanthemums with simple openwork petals and leaves expressed in positive relief. The iron plate has a dark, subdued luster, with a thick goishi-gata shape around the seppa-dai, and subtle hair-carving on the leaves.
