An unsigned iron tsuba (sword guard) worked with amida-yasuri file marks and an openwork fan motif. The fan, with its widening "suehiro" shape, has long been cherished as an auspicious design symbolizing prosperity and growth, making it a fitting subject for a samurai to carry.
The amida-yasuri, with file lines radiating outward from the center, lends a dignified and orderly impression. The pierced fan design adds lightness and harmonizes with the calm texture of the iron ground, conveying the aesthetic sense of the period and the skill of the craftsman.
