When I checked the family crest on the internet, I found that the

paulownia crest is used by Toyotomi, the imperial family, etc.
Gold material, high quality, paulownia crest, and paulownia crest

are decorated.
I think it is Gosan-kiri, which is used by Nobunaga Oda,

Hideyoshi Toyotomi, and others.
I am not familiar with family crests, so I researched on the Internet.


Kuri Kou
Ayasugi carving
Ikuta School
Koto (Japanese harp)
13 strings


All decorations are made of the finest natural materials.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a luxury construction and is

at the level of a gift to the authorities of the time.


The paulownia crest made of gold material is decorated on both

sides of the koto.
The grain of the wood is also very beautiful and delicate.
The gold decoration, including the paulownia crest,

is not engraved, so it is unknown if it is pure gold or not.
Before being exhibited, it was reupholstered in March 2024 at

a long-established koto workshop, which has been in business for

over 40 years, with 6 strings of Tokiwa's specially selected thread,

which is now rare and precious.
The president of the long-established koto workshop said,

“I have never seen such a magnificent koto!”
It is a rare and valuable koto.
The word "once in a lifetime" fits this koto perfectly.
How about it for your collection or as an objet d'art?
