NBTHK Paper:

Translation:
Tea colored stone surface lacquer daisho mountings
fuchi kashira dai - there is a temple called Doshoji, but this meaning pretains to a story which involves a Hannya I believe.  sho dragon design both iron surfaced
Menuki - Dai - morning glory with writing brush   Sho - Lion dog  in shakudo
Tsuba - Bamboo sukashi design round iron surface

1700’s
