This unsigned kozuka features an elaborate carving of the Seven Lucky Gods on a treasure ship, a highly auspicious motif. The detailed nanako-ji (fish-roe ground) work, powerful high-relief carving, and vibrant gold painting and inlay effectively depict the lively scene. Though the metal backing shows age and a joint has come loose, the charm of this auspicious design and the skill of the metalworker remain undiminished, making it a delightful piece for appreciation.
