千村平右衛門所用 本品は千切紋と片喰紋を据えており、「千村平右衛門所用」とする木札と一応の一致をみる。千村家は信濃代官でありながら尾張藩家臣という独特の地位にあり、平右衛門の名は歴代当主が代々名乗っている。
This piece bears the Chigiri crest and the Katabami crest, which correspond with the wooden tag inscribed ‘Used by Chimura Heihachirō.’
The Chimura family held a unique status as retainers of the Owari Domain while simultaneously serving as magistrates of Shinano.
The name Heihachirō was traditionally adopted by successive heads of the family.
