Ian Posted December 6, 2013 Report Posted December 6, 2013 It really breaks my heart when a nice old itomaki had all but disintegrated, and you have to take it off the tsuka. But when these fall out, it kind of makes it all better! :D I like the way also that they are curved to fit the tsuka Best Quote

Ian Posted December 6, 2013 Author Report Posted December 6, 2013 Masayoshi I think according to one of the group :D Quote
Dr Fox Posted December 6, 2013 Report Posted December 6, 2013 Ohhhh nice Ian!!! Sad to say, but without the misfortune with the ito, you and then we, would never have had sight of something as special these. Thanks for sharing. Quote
