Kozuka is signed "Masayoshi" with Kao. Based on the material used we know that it was made in second half of Edo period, however I do not know which "Masayoshi" made this piece.
When I got this kozuka it was in very poor condition. That is why it has been cleaned and some conservation work has been done. Pictures of the kozuka before repairs are at the bottom of the page.
Size: 98 mm x 15 mm x 5 mm
