Mokume-gane is a metalworking procedure which produces a mixed-metal laminate with distinctive layered patterns, as well as that laminate itself. Mokume-gane translates closely to "wood grain metal" or "wood eye metal" and describes the way metal takes on the appearance of natural wood grain. Mokume Gane fuses several layers of differently colored precious metals together to form a sandwich of alloys called a "billet." The billet is then manipulated in such a way that a pattern resembling wood grain emerges over its surface. Numerous ways of working the Mokume Gane create diverse pattens. Once the metal has been rolled into a sheet or bar, several techniques are used to produce a range of effects. Mokume-gane has been used to create many artistic objects.
The rod was made of brass, red copper and white copper plate。
