Ginrin Hi Utsuri KOI

Here is an example of a great Hi Utsuri with an excellent Ginrin Sheen.  Hi Utsuri have a black base with Hi (Red or Orange) markings overlaying .  The Black appears as a Banded pattern as opposed to the spotted pattern of a Bekko.  A deep Sumi (Black) color is most desirable with no dull spots or black speckles.
