　山崎一賀は、仁左衛門といい、後藤就乗の門人で同名数代あるといわれている。作風は、赤銅魚子地に高彫色絵工法で後藤家の作品に類似し、彫・色絵とも濃やかさが加味されており、細密で格調が高い。

Since I haven't posted anything positive in a while, here's another page of box labels you might enjoy....

I've been meaning to do this for months - I got some of that semigloss post it paper material and am currently in the process of calibrating the printer for it/printing a test sheet (its gotta dry a while before I can hit it with the colorimeter).

The stuff is funky in that it has 5 strips of the post-it material across the back. I was thinking this would suck, but the strips are laid 1/2 inch (12.7mm) in from each edge in the long axis (which I can't print easily with the epson anyway), and if you cut it through the middle (which cuts the center strip down the middle), I don't think it'll be too bad. Here's my first test - the (non metric alert - is just so happens that it works out better in inches - the printed area is 7 1/2" X 9.75" (190.5mm X 247.65mm) which divides nicely into 6 tsuba-box-top sized squares if you're workin' in english measurements..).

I just put an image and some basic info about each piece on each square - maybe I'll add a reference number too before I print it out....
