  8. and John (sorrowly!) did quitt the "scene". he very certainly did "lead" you in his usual and best way in his writing! me
  9. the world ? "hemisphere"... shining like stars? ???? really do need some friends here to decipher this for you...could have various meanings- indeed....! some time needed! Very good! eitherway!.... Very good! indeed!
  10. i actuelly can not decipher this Japanese mei... i but am confident in reading some chinese mei/constellation here... "the big sun/ emperor"...the "world/ hemisphere"...something like a set rule...???? no! no copies! in my eyes... just a very well, fine made fitting... not that old, though- of course. will see...

  18. This is great Peter! ! Thank you! (very nice work! jbw) Christian
  19. thanks Peter! but rather not really that kind of stuff i am looking for.... pictures, if available ?- shoud head more into mine above set stilism... but eitherway- thank you! Very kind!
  20. Dear Gentlemen, i am looking for pictures (preferably in colour and higher resolution if available?) depicting Tsuba with a Bull motif in worked out "Sukashi" or "Kebori" manner.... i do have these pics. here (see attached pictures) - could but need more if available..? i am happy with anybody sharing pictures from his database here.... thank you in advance! ! Christian
  21. Laugh! mea culpa for throwing a certain confusion here! You have to know that i only collect me early Sukashi Tsuba.... so these latter Edo period Tsuba are not in my personal interest and due such, i equally do not have this kind of literature-least i do not hold it. Sorry again for confusion! Christian
  22. Ah! i see what puzzels you. You are right of course Brian! In "classical" sense- this is not a kinko tsuba. it is a Tsuba which has to be grouped to the tetsu Tsuba. but well, this is somehow obsolet due the massive aplication of "Kinkoism" for me. least for me, a pure tetsu Sukashi Tsuba collector only. do group it like you prefer....in "classical-schoolars" language, this is a tetsu Tsuba but. Christian
  23. Yepp! Iron/Steel...there is some folding lines in the mimi. this is but obviously visible... ?
  24. here are some better pictures...
  25. Thank you Thierry ! this is very kind from you! so does it seem legit? the mei......the stilism? attached a whole picture of this piece.... (i know! many do like such....as i but said- not mine time, not mine taste- so i definitely am depending on you guys from the "Kinko-Front") Christian
