Nara Waterfall Tsuba
7 x 6.9 x .3 cm
Item No. T034
Sorry my scan is really bad on this one due to the high steel area's on the tsuba. This school is so under rated as they made small, but wonderfull tsuba. This one has the metal pushed up to make rocks and cliffs with water falls coming out of the rocks. The trees and buildings are done in steel and soft metal with gold highlights. A great tsuba!

Sorry my scan is really bad on this one due to the high steel area's on the tsuba. This school is so under rated as they made small, but wonderfull tsuba. Well what is going on there under that tree!!! , I have never seen this before on a tsuba! It is signed by Denryu sai Yoshiyuki and has some of the best steel color I have ever seen on a tsuba. The detail on this tsuba, of every part is done perfect the melted rim, five different soft metal inlays and wonderfull steel.
