<p>[QUOTE="mmarco102, post: 390992, member: 8289"][ATTACH=full]135645[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]135646[/ATTACH] Very good question, and I really would like to know. The inside of the box appears to be brass(a guess, see new images here), not positive. If you look closely at the last picture from the original post you will notice the the inlay is just starting to barely lift(un-noticeable unless your looking for it. That inlay is made of the same material the the woman sculpture seems to be made of and my guess is as stated above "tsuba" as I believe iron wouldn't stand the time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
