Made of tate-maru-gata iron, niko-bori in gold, copper and silver, maru-mimi. Decorated with a landscape in Chinese style, depicting an area of rice paddies with islands in the distance, an old pine tree on the right side, a village with farmers working to harvest rice, much of it already cut and gathered into sheaves. Sekigane. The Bushu school was founded by a student of Umetada from Musashi province (Bushu in Chinese reading) who then moved to Edo and specialised in small-scale engravings and decorations. Very simple motifs are always treated in contrast to the large Nara or Hamano schools. Late Edo period, third quarter of the 19th century.
