Material : Iron Shape : tate-maru shape Hole : - Technique : suki-sage ke-bori engraving, ji-sukashi open wrok, dew inlay, kaku-mimi koniku Feature : This is an eye-catching mount with a poem from the Kokin Waka Shu* engraved in kuzushiji characters on the front seppada. When we tried to read the characters one by one, we could not find the character for "fu", which should be "fune". When you move your eyes from the characters to the design, the stem chest forms the shape of a boat and the wisteria flowers are moving in the midst of the blooming season. The character for "fu", which was deliberately not engraved, is connected to the shape and evokes a richer meaning, such as "longevity of military fortune" (= immortality → wisteria). *More information in video. image1 image2 |
