Dear members, I am offering here an early Ko-Kinko Kogai with a box, around late 16th century. It is very well preserved and is made of Yamagane, as was typical for the period. The motif is cherry blossoms in sukidashi-bori over a punched background with clear traces of urushi. The back of the kogai has subtle sujikai-yasurime. Price: 285,00 €, excl postage and PayPal Kindest regards

Dear members, I am offering here one of the swords that I bought from Markus Sesko, shortly before he left Salzburg/Austria and moved to the USA. The text describing the blade is his, as are the photos. Shobu zukuri Wakizashi The sword has no papers, only the certificate of Tsuruta from Aoi-Art. The nagasa is 48.7 cm, the sori is 1.8 cm, the motohaba is 2.51 cm, and the kasane is 0.55 cm. Tsuruta dates the blade to the Muromachi period and attributes it to the Sue Naminohira school. All in all, a slender, strongly curved wakizashi blade in Shirasaya with the typical features of later Kyushu work, i.e. a whitish, soft-looking jigane. The Hada does not stick out, but is visible. It occurs as a ko-itame with mokume in places and some nagare. The hamon is hardened in nie-deki and appears as a somewhat "frayed" suguha due to the nie-heavy hataraki running parallel to the habuchi. This is typical of Naminohira. The itame-nagare speaks for Sue-Naminohira, since ayasugi often occurs with older Naminohira blades. While the above characteristics were also applied by other Sue-koto schools, the steel color speaks for Kyushu, and there the characteristics conform best to Naminohira. I would like to primarily sell the blade in Europe to avoid customs formalities! Price: 880,00 €, the price does not include postage Kindest regards
