CSM101 Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 Once again I have to admit that I have not the slightest idea, what kind of tsuba is this. Yoshiro maybe? It would be great, if you can show me light at the end of the tunnel.. Thank you! Uwe G. Quote
Stefan Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 First Impression : Not Japanese workmanship It looks like an european hobby handwork. Most probably I `am wrong as usualy in question of Kodogu Greets Stefan Quote
CSM101 Posted October 22, 2013 Author Report Posted October 22, 2013 Okay, one from the side. Maybe that gives you a better impression. Uwe G. Quote
Grey Doffin Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 I agree with Stefan. At best this is Meiji or later dock work (Hamamono) but I think someone without training attempting tsuba art is more likely. Grey Quote
Kevin Adams Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 I'd also say modern. The design is too simplistic for this motif, the execution is too mechanical and in the second photograph, you can see what looks like solder joints where the mon are joined to the plate... Quote
