Nishimura Izuminokami was the name held by eleven generations of bronze-casters, mainly active across the Edo period.

A bronze hôkyôin-tô tower at the Matsuchiyama Shôten shrine in Tokyo, believed to be designed by Nishimura Izumi-no-kami V in 1781, is the only such bronze tower surviving in the Taitô-ku area of the metropolis.
