It is far more elegant and beautiful than I would have imaged from the web pictures. I am extremely impressed by the heaviness of the materials and the lacquer finish..

Naoe Kanetsugu (直江 兼続) was a Japanese samurai of the 16th-17th centuries. The eldest son of Higuchi Kanetoyo, Kanetsugu was famed for his service to two generations of the Uesugi daimyo. Kanetsugu served first as a koshō to Uesugi Kenshin. After Kenshin had died, he served Kagekatsu, of the adopted son of Kenshin. Kanetsugu's brother, Ōkuni Sanehiro, was also a famous Uesugi retainer.
