    Hi I'm finding this design a bit difficult to determine It looks like holly but that doesn't seem right

    It's a bit late for new but I do like the overall design What is your best price to the UK Merry Christmas

    I've always kept a record of my tsuba in a doc format as below I also keep a spreadsheet so I can easily organise them in any order such as schools and dates With the record you can add as much or as little as you like This one of my earlier records from over ten years ago and nothing has really changed but now I remove the tsuba background to white

    I have quite a few tsuba makers where the maker is unknown A resent one being: Nobukuni Masatoshi 信國 正壽 I have quite a few reference books but found nothing Apart from an internet search is there another resource I can use? I know maker from say 1800+ can be problematic

    Not sure if this has been mentioned earlier but only gold members can offer items for sale but anyone can buy

    You usually have black 'dots' on bone but not on ivory
