I'm no expert, and I'm not sure if the previous comment was serious or a joke, but to me, that greenish grime and oxidation on the menuki looks like brass/copper corrosion rather than something you'd see on gold alloys.

Hola Javier yo vivo cerca de Madrid y aunque no se repatinar ,si puedo darte algún cuidado de katana y tsuba básico o darte algo de material o decirte dónde comprarlo.

I'm glad to hear that. If I may, I think the only important thing with an airtight or semi-airtight mount is ensuring that the materials—the frame, etc.—don't off-gas over time. Also, museum glass is the best upgrade you can make. I'd love to see your project! I'm sure the others would too.

Hi Kiko, I’m going to buy this IKEA table soon, and I plan to add an extra glass pane on top to create something similar to what you like—just in case the idea appeals to you. https://www.ikea.com/es/es/p/stockholm-2025-vitrina-chapa-roble-60586692/#

Thanks for the information. Thanks to you, I can include a description in the display case. It’s an amateur effort, but I’d like to show it to you. For the case, I used museum-quality board, adhesive aluminum foil, and conservation-grade adhesive. It’s missing museum glass, but that was beyond my budget—maybe later on.

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?

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.

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.

Save on direct purchases for over 100,000 yen. Why do sellers waste our time like this? Or by canceling items when they've set a low price?
