Manu Propria Pens - Inazuma Tsuba Pen

[manupropria]

I am working on some experiments with high relief "takamaki-e" lacquer imitating various metal tsuba. This is the first "kiseru" pen showing an iron "tsuba" sword guard with "sukinokoshi mimi", lightnings "inazuma" brass inlays "zôgan". The "sekigane" fillers in copper, the "kozuka hitsu-ana" in brass. Tsuba on a black stone surface "ishime-ji".

Best,

Martin
