This is an unsigned kozuka from the Edo period, featuring a robust iron base with a unique rounded butt end. It depicts shrimp, a symbol of longevity, rendered in shakudo with their tails curled to perfectly complement the kozuka's shape. The piece showcases the metalworker's exceptional design skill and playful spirit, with the shakudo shrimp subtly emerging from the deep, calm iron surface, exuding a rustic yet dignified elegance.
