art print : uraminosuke ankle sock A glossy orb of red

A glossy orb of red onyx set in a sterling silver ring

the band ring is restrained and roughly refined for an understated effect

Each piece of mashiko is made by hand

In this scene Ushiwaka battles a giant swordsman called Benkei

for a unique display piece either framed or unframed
