tokashikibob Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 Gents, I'm interested in bidding on this tsuba but would like your opinions on it's authenticity and quality before gambling on a bid. Best Regards, Bob Quote
Rivkin Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 Not a specialist, but I would guess anytime between 1830 and 1880. The scene depicting hunting Manchu. Above average quality. Exact school can be at this point pretty much anything. Late Hamano Nara would fit well (?), but the signature does not fit the school. Quote
vajo Posted March 15, 2016 Report Posted March 15, 2016 I like it very much. The view of the dog is wonderful. Quote
