  1. Hi Justyn, this specific tsuba has been discussed years and years :
  2. Indeed, Steve's explanation appears so obvious ! Once you have it, everything seems so simple.... thank you!
  3. Thank you so much Damon for your VERY nice tsuba. I am impressed by the sukashi skills of these artists.
  4. Thank you Mauro for all these exemples. I am surprised by such different styles within the same school. Amazing!
  5. Hi, I have purchased this tsuba recently signed Echizen Myochin Yoshi Hisa saku. Can you show similar tsuba from your collection and do you have information on this specific school ? Thank you.
  6. Wounderful find ! Bravo!
  7. Hello everybody, I have just adquired this tanshu no ju sadamasa tsuba (丹州住定正) but wandering what the design is ? Is the meaning a cosmology or Zodiac sign? Thank you for your help.
  8. Sword offered by Napoleon 1er . € 3 650 000 Hammer price
  9. Very faint signature indeed. Please provide a better picture.
  10. Hi Marcin, My personnal opinion is that Catawiki is not the best place to purchase nice pieces. This katanakake is modern and quite expensive for a 21st century piece. I would suggest to invest in a real edo katanakake even spending more money. My personnel test would not drive me to purchase this one.
  11. Piers, PM sent.
  12. Thank you Piers. I found him in Haynes under reference H 05891.0 Thank you so much
  13. Hi, can you please decypher this mei for me ? Thank you
  14. Thank you Piers, Haynes lists at EISEI (栄清) that the two kanji can be read as Shigekiyo or even Hidekiyo (Haynes 00450.0) . Not sure he is the same guy.
  15. Thank you Jean and Uwe for your help. Unfortunatly I didn't find in my books any TSUNEKIYO, EISEI or TSUNEHARU (One of my guesses) from akao school with those Kanji. Another mystery.....
  16. Hi NMB friends.. Can you help me, please, with these two kanji ? Thank you
  17. Could it be yamagane ? Please refer to : https://varshavskycollection.com/collection/tsu-0331/
  18. Last discount : €200 or $220 + shipping fee and payment fee if any.
  19. Thank you all of you for your comments and your point of view. It has helped me a lot.
  20. Size of the tsuba: 8 cm I didn't think at a revival ko-kinko pièce. But might be the case...
  21. My goal is obviously not to rehash an old thread of more than 12 years old. However when you search the web on "hitsu ana shape" , no much appears. I purshased a shibuichi tsuba some days ago described has being from "late Edo" . Coming back to hitsu ana shapes, one of them make me think that my tsuba could be much more earlier (muromachi ?). What are you views, please ?
  22. By the way I have discovered this website with beautiful pictures of tsuba from Musée Gimet and Berne Museum. Description is not that bad... https://zone47.com/crotos/index.php?&p31=1758043&mode=0
  23. Sold yesterday at a french auction for 1820 €. https://www.tessier-sarrou.com/lot/163317/28349451-japon-ecole-haruaki-epoque-meiji-1868-1912-sumi-kiri-gata-en?sort=num&
