This is a fuchigashira (set of fuchi and kashira) featuring a 'Senbikizaru' (thousand monkeys) openwork design, attributed to Yagami Mitsuhiro of Hizen province. It is made of brass and iron with intricate openwork and hair carving. The brass base beneath the iron openwork creates a subtle golden background, enhancing the complex monkey motif.
