NihontoWatchNihontoWatchThis tsuba, attributed to a Katchushi (armorer), features a maru-gata (round shape) iron plate with a suhama mon (sandbar crest) in kosukashi (small openwork) near the rim. The suhama mon, a traditional auspicious motif, is depicted as three connected circles. Made of thinly forged iron, characteristic of Katchushi tsuba, it dates to the early Edo period, showcasing a rustic yet powerful iron aesthetic.
