His childhood name was Takejiro. His other names were Tokasai and Hoshu. Born in Mito, Hitachi Province, as the fourth son of Den'emon. He studied metal engraving under his uncle, the first Unno Bisei, a retainer of the Mito clan. Furthermore, through Bisei's introduction, he acquired various metalworking techniques from Hagiya Shohei, who was the leading figure in the Mito metal carving world at the time, and took the name Kihei. The name "Shomin" is thought to have been taken later by combining "Sho" from his teacher Hagiya Shohei and "Min" from Yokoya Somin, a famous metal carver of the Edo period. Also, during his time in Mito, he studied painting with Adachi Baikei and Chinese classics with Take Shojiro, acquiring a high level of education. ◎We do not accept returns due to the buyer's circumstances, such as a different image, incorrect size, or unnecessary items, so please bid carefully.
