Timur Posted April 30, 2017 Report Posted April 30, 2017 Hi everybody, Does anybody know anything about this artist? Failed to find any info. His name looks like 尾州住 広栄/廣栄 which could be read as Bishu ju Hiroei. 1 Quote
Curran Posted April 30, 2017 Report Posted April 30, 2017 I stumbled on that tsuba a few months back and found the design extremely pleasing. Given it had papers, I tried to look up the artist and had no clean luck. I recruited another collector who is very good at tracking down artists. He had no luck either. We thought it might be a variant signature of a few possible artists. If someone figures this one out, I'll be glad to learn. It stumped me. Beautiful tsuba with nice simple design with very clean workmanship. 2 Quote

Guido Posted May 1, 2017 Report Posted May 1, 2017 尾州住 広栄/廣栄 which could be read as Bishu ju Hiroei. My guess is "Bishū jū Kōei". 1 Quote
