*''Japanese'': [[西村]] [[和泉]] 守 ''(Nishimura Izumi-no-kami)''

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 Shoten|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.
