What Is The School ? Nk You

[Kurikata]

Hi ,

 

I have this tsuba in my collection for several years now. I have not succeeded in finding a school or any influence.... Does someone has an idea?

 

Size is 3 1/8" (marugata) large and almost 1/8" thick.

 

Thank you.

No clues?

So... Let it say ... Shoami

I haqve a similarary carved tsuba that was viewed by Bob Haynes and he said that the school was unknown

He dated it around c1700 and I wondered if mine was actual a bit later in date

Sometimes a school will remain unknown unless you are lucky enough to find a similar example that is defined

As Bruno said you can always say Shoami and let some else disprove it

Thank you Grev.

 

World It be possible To get a picture of your Tsuba?

Oops

I was thing about the tsuba in the post 'Tsuba Found In Antique Shop'

I don't have a tsuba like yours

Maybe the thin rim is an clue and is the face convex?

I still think it will remain 'school unknown'
