  1. I also have this one for those who love night scènes
  2. Thanks for the info on my print. It is signed Hiroshige. I did some research some years ago about it as far as I remember it could be attributed to a later Hiroshige generation: 4th. Here 2 others prints for comparison
  3. Hello, Here are my prints. The fuji san from Kaiseki is one of my favorite.
  4. I think there was a rim that was removed. Look at the legs, we still see a part of it
  5. Hello It is obvious the fuchi is in shibuishi and the kashira in shakudo. Based on that I thinks it is quite Strange that a "matching set" don't use the same materials ! Also, look at the eyes on both. Not the same technic used. So, for me it same the Octopus theme, but not a Matching set / not the same maker.

  8. Hello Bruno, I think you are right 政親
  9. Hello, I would appreciate your help to decipher this mei. Many thanks

    tanaka ?

    Hello, I also thinks it is a Tanaka
  12. Hello, All the above fuchi kashira are from the edo period, so not a later imitiation. You should look at Nara school that produced Sentoku fuchi kashira with landscape design.

    Fudo Myoo tsuba

    Hello Chris, Thanks for your comment. My feeling was more on Nara group, but Shoami could also be a good call. Thanks

    Fudo Myoo tsuba

    Hello, This is an iron tsuba with a Fudo Myoo carved. It has a mei, but it is too thin and worn to be read Any opinion and/or idea about the school are welcome Thanks Sébastien
  16. Hello Arno, Some minor patina issue but it is a nice kinko tsuba.
  17. Hello Bruno, First one could be this one 桐 I have more difficulties to find the second one
  18. I see that blade and I am a little bit disappointed because on the face with the mei, almost all the surface of the blade is covered by the bohi. This result we don't see the jigane on this face, that is a shame.

    Tsuba help

    Yes, these marks are done to fit nakago ana of the tsuba to the nakago of a sword. If it is tight on your sword, so probably done to fit this sword. Must not be a tsuba reused.

    Tsuba help

    Hello, The chiseling around the nakago ana is to fit the nakago ana to the blade. This "push" the iron Inside the nakago ana and tighten more the blade. So a technical reason Under these mark and not an artistic one. Sorry hard to read the mei.
