| C-104 Kanayama Tsuba Saiyu Sankai Hishi Design NBTHK Hozon certified iron tsuba to Kanayama school. The piece is classic muromachi period work with deep dark patina and thick prominent tekkotsu. Iron looks wet especially around the rim. Slight inward dished out feeling give it the strong impressive feel typical of Kanayama. The tsuba looks much wetter than in the picture. This is a good example piece for Kanayama work and would make a perfect fit in a collection of pre-Edo period iron. Muromachi Unsigned - NBTHK Hozon attribution Kanayama $2500
