kaze ryu

Hi Friends sorry for the delay. Past days i have a trouble uploading images. The color is more realistic in that pictures. Thanks for the info! In Spain the tradicional day for the Christmas presents is on 6th of january, i still have some time. Gemini (better app providing images análisis rather than chat gpt ) sais its late edo too and the fruit is kachi guri, representing dry chessnut joined that simbolice like rokujuro said Fortune and prosperity.

I Hello friends of Tosogu. My sister works in a lab, so I got her this piece with a little mouse on it. I was wondering if anyone could help me find out more about the piece. I don't know what fruit, like the mouse, for example, but mainly I need help identifying the school. It's not signed, and the back is sakudo, unlike the front, which isn't gold. I love the detail of the gold in gold. 1,4 x 10 cm 30gr

Wouldn't petri dishes condense and amplify if there were any residual moisture?

The first may be shoami?

Thanks. One of my first tsubas. Totally inexperienced. At the time, I liked it better. It seems darkened to simulate another material may be and also have a mei. I imagine others might have it too. So, I won't waste too much time and leave it as is. Thank you very much for the help. I hope to do the same for others when I have more knowledge.

This is the most worrisome. It has a shiny layer and looks dark, but there seems to be rust underneath it. It seems stable, and I don't know if I should do something about it. Maybe it's corroding without being visible? I think this photo is quite natural may be more dark in the reality In the sun...it looks terrible in the photo; in reality, not so much. Thoughts??

Many cotton swabs and red rags later...done. I prefer to work on iron without oil to lift the red rust without darkening it. I work with bone, ivory, and rags soaked in distilled water. When the red rust doesn't show up as much anymore, I apply a thin layer of oil and rub with a cotton cloth. Thanks so much for the warning. I should definitely do this with some others.

I like it. I was aware of its size. Now I can only imagine my wife's face when she sees the last tsuba hanging on the front door. If I wanted to remove the red rust, I think I'd need a complete skeleton.

Great. Thanks for the heads-up. I'll try to fix it and upload some photos. Thanks!

Ooo, thank you so much for the information. I'll record all the documentation in the file for my collection. Very grateful. My main question was why it has that golden color near the nagako ana. It seems out of place. It definitely looks original, and I love it. Does anyone know why this is there? I'm very grateful, as my knowledge is still very limited. I don't know Japanese, and I sometimes have trouble distinguishing between schools. I greatly appreciate your comments.

I really like that tsuba but It has strange marks and golden color too. Amy thoughts?
