Item Type:
Fittings - tsuba
Description:
This is a wonderful Kanayama tsuba which has been changing hands between well-known Western collectors for several decades. See Jim Gilbert collection as another reference. This is a text-book example, small in diameter with very thick rim, dished plate and lumpy tekkotsu. The colour is blackish and the surface looks wet and lustrous, typical for Kanayama and Owari sukashi tsuba. Period: Momoyama Height: 6.7cm |

Item Type:
Fittings - menuki
Description:
This is an excellent set of menuki depicting either kawara (roof tiles) or cart wheels, a popular Buddhist motif. Its construction method is rather special: thin metal base is plated with 3 different metals: copper (red), shakudo (black) and gold (yellow) and then its hollow back is filled with resin to make it more durable. It's hard to find a well preserved set of this kind due to its fragility. Era: Edo DimensionsWidth: 2.7cm (each) |
