Early Edo Shoami Sukashi Tsuba Diamonds And Ginger

[Higo-san]

Dear fellow board members,

 

for sale (again) is a fantastic Shoami tsuba with prominent tekkotsu on the rim (I have taken additional pictures of the tekkotsu). Very similiar pieces have been published in Sasano Masayuki's silver book and Eckhard Kremer's book. I have offered this tsuba for sale on the NMB before (http://www.militaria.co.za/nmb/topic/22537-hayashi-and-shoami-tsuba-and-a-mino-kashira/) and since then the patination has improved/healed significantly! This is your chance to own a fantastic early sukashi tsuba with a much sought after design for a moderate price.

 

Plus: This piece came from the Eckhard Kremers Collection!

Early Edo period

Dimensions: 7.8 cm x 7.8 cm x 0.43 cm

Asking price: EUR 450.00 plus PayPal and shipping.

 

Best,

 

Chris

Sword oil, fresh air and loving care, Stephen ! If the new owner continues the process, then there is a good chance that the patina will become even better.
