A polished shakudo fuchi-kashira set decorated with Raijin, the god of thunder. The Tetsugendo School is known for its depictions of Fujin and Raijin on sword fittings. Made in the late Edo period with inlaid metals and gold iroe, this set has not been fully cleaned, so some inlaid metals are not fully visible.

The Tetsugendo (鉄元堂) lineage emerged in Kyoto during the mid-Edo period, founded by Okamoto Genbei Toshiyuki, who trained under Tetsuya Denbei Kuniharu (鉄屋伝兵衛国治). Known by his working name Naoshige (尚茂), the founder later adopted the art name Shoraku (正楽) after taking Buddhist tonsure, and died in An'ei 9 (1780). The lineage passed to a second generation, Naofusa (尚房), whose works also survive. Learn more →
