重光は又七の長男として1667年肥後に生まれる。同家の二代として父に次ぐ力量を認められる。細川家の藩工で優工である。1744年78歳で没した。
林一派は同国飽田郡春日村に住したので春日派ともいわれ，平田，西垣，志水の3家とともに肥後金工の四大派を形成した。
肥後熊本藩主、細川忠利に抱えられ，鐔工に転じて肥後鐔を完成した。林家はその主流をなし，とくに又七は肥後金工の祖といわれている。又七の作風は，鉄鍔の製作を得意とし、鉄の鍛が抜群によく 鉄錆のよさに加えて金象眼の巧みさと精巧な透しに特色がある。重要文化財の「破扇(はせん)桜象眼鐔」「桜九曜文透象眼鐔」をはじめ、遠見松透、投桐(なげぎり)透、御紋透などがある。林家の家系は、又七を初代にとし、二代藤平（重光）三代藤八重房 四代平蔵重次五代又平勝家（家久）六代又八 七代藤七と継承して幕末期まで繁昌した。 Kawarigata Tetsuji Jisukashikebori Marumimi
