The Ishiguro School of engravers formed one of the major currents of sword fittings makers in Edo area which greatly flourished in the late Edo period. Their focus and strong point was the depiction of flowers and birds and, with their gorgeous takabori-iroe interpretations, they developeda unique style which elevated their works from mere sword mount fittings to stand-alone works of art.We know that certain flower and bird motifs were based of thorough sketches of flower and bird studies by Masatsune and Masayoshi. These feature birds of prey with a sharp and intimidating look, a multicolored plumage that is accentuated by varied chiseling's, which are overall of a rich and splendid beauty.Hardly any other school was able to come up with such a bold and determined execution of their works like the Ishiguro School did, (excerpts from the original text) Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
