Description

Of tapering globular form, the iron body inset with two lobed panels inlaid in typical Komai-style gold and silver overlay with favourite landmarks, one side depicting the famous torii gate at the Itsukushima Shrine and the other with a nocturnal scene of an arched bridge leading to a small pavilion nestled in landscaped gardens surrounding a pond, the whole reflected in the water by the full mooon, a sailing boat in the foreground, the side signed with a seal Amemiya just above the base, the inside of the bronze cover signed in chiselled cursive characters Ryubundo zo and surmounted by a knop in the form of a stylised bud.
