Goto Shell Menuki
T0074
SOLD
A good pair of shakudo, gold, and silver menuki. 3.74 cm x 1.24 cm x 3.5 mm 3.78 cm x 1.19 cm x 4.3 mm. The gold and silver are applied in uttori, sheet gold and silver affixed to the shakudo base, rather than plated. This is an application used by the earlier artists. There is kin sabe (gold rust) on the center shell. There is a groove on one of the menuki, that I believe to be a maker's or appraisers mark.
