This pair of kinko menuki takes the round button form and is gilt. One shows a dragon among waves and the other shows waves alone, so the two differ while sharing a single theme. The set is listed under Japanese swords, fittings and firearms as SKU MGJ465 and sold in used condition, as antique fittings are. No measurements or weight are given in the listing.

Round gilt menuki with a wave subject give a Texas collector a matched set for a handle wrap where a brighter fitting is wanted than dark shakudo work. The dragon on one and plain waves on the other means the two read as a set from either side of the grip. They can also be kept loose for display with other fittings. The gilt surface should be judged from the photographs, since the supplier gives no wear grade beyond the used condition.
