Krystian Posted November 29, 2022 Report Posted November 29, 2022 Hello, Shakudo menuki signed "Hirotsugu" with Kao for sale. There where few artists that used that name. Based on Kao and similarities between this menuki and piece made by Motohiro, I think it was made by Shokatei Hirotsugu from Kyoto. He was active around 1850. His master was Motohiro who learned from Otsuki Mitsutoki and Mitsuyoshi. However I do not have enough comparison data to be sure. Size: 1: 35 mm x 15 mm x 8 mm 2: 36 mm x 15 mm x 8 mm Price: 700$ More photos: https://soryu.pl/collections/menuki/products/shakudo-menuki-signed-hirotsugu-with-kao-decorated-with-wasp Krystian
