HTKK papered Hagi tsuba

[kissakai]

Hi

This is the only ‘papered’ tsuba I have so I’m keen to know a little more about it

Can I ask for help with these HTKK papers.

This late Edo tsuba unsigned is iron sukashi of what appears to be chrysanthemums and leaves. The size is 81 x 5mm and although it looks as if the mimi is wider, the mimi and centre both measure 5mm

I’ve done a bit of translation but as I don’t know the layout for this type of paper I’m unsure what to look for and where and some are the kanji styles appear to differ

I have no problem doing some research myself with some help

 

 

 

 

I assume here is the basic tsuba data including school, maker, metal, type description

 

 

 

Is this just the basic measurements? I have accurately measured the tsuba and differ slightly

 

 

 

No idea what is on this page

 

 

 

Front of envelope that may be the appraiser

 

 

 

Back of envelope – no idea

Hi

Obviously I asked too much with this request - the only other kanji I found was for tsuba!

 

Can anyone tell me if the tsuba is dated?

With the date and knowing the school I can do a bit more of my own research

Grev,

 

In the image with the size the middle column says mid-Edo period.
