A futatokoromono made up of a kozuka and a pair of menuki united by the same motif, the shishi (guardian lion). The kozuka has a very even shakudō nanako ground with a gold shishi applied in high relief, treated as a heraldic emblem. On the ura, a gold plate filed in diagonal strokes, the photographs show the attribution inscription of Gotō Mitsuyoshi, a later head of the Gotō family, assigning the piece to Gotō Teijō, ninth generation of the main line, son of Kenjō and one of the most gifted metalworkers of the family. The menuki are of solid gold, carved in katachibori as complete shishi with finely worked manes and tails; they are unsigned and attributed to the Gotō school, by a different hand from the kozuka. The condition is good: the nanako is intact, the gold preserved, with only light wear on the high points of the menuki. The NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Tosogu paper of 2017, no. 2003992, records the kozuka as Teijō through Mitsuyoshi's inscription and the menuki as Gotō. The kozuka measures 9.70 × 1.49 cm. According to the original seller, it is kept in a kiri box.
