Description

This is an unsigned Kozuka attributed to the Ko-Kinko school, depicting two tigers among susuki grass. It is believed to be a repurposed Kogai (Kogai-naoshi Kozuka). The piece features high-relief carving on a shakudo nanako ground, with gold and silver inlay for details like the tigers' eyes, which are sharply rendered despite the worn fur carving.
