Hi everybody,
It's been a while...
I just bought this little mae-kanagu with the 12 finely detailed animals of the zodiac.
I think the mei is 本, but I can't put a name on it, so anyone to help me?
Thank you,
Yves.
And there is also a mei:
藻柄子 入道宗典製 = Mogarashi nyudo Soten sei
Dimensions - weight:
K: 35,2 x 18,8 x 12,1 cm - 12,79 gram
F: 38,0 x 24,3 x 9,6 cm - 15,39 gram
Thank you Jake, you don't have to apologize.
You see what I meant with "We'll come back on the subject... "
And speaking about the eyes, those on your tsuba aren't golden eyes either...
Dear Colin,
I recently bought them because I liked them, without knowing what the kanji (mei) meant.
A "little" research brought me to 乙柳軒鋪隨. So I made this topic.
Thanks for your replies.
