Other Info
The theme of this Tsuba is Unryu, Dragon with Clouds. It is a bit unusual design in that it is Mutsu-mokko with a large uchikaeshi rim. The dragon itself is designed a little differently like the Nanban style. It seemed to be used in the Koshirae of a robust sword during the Bakamatsu Era.
