smilemakerone Posted July 8, 2018 Report Posted July 8, 2018 can anyone help on this mei, please Quote
Ray Singer Posted July 8, 2018 Report Posted July 8, 2018 It is clearly trying to read Bizen (no) Kuni Osafune _-_something. The last part of the mei is not clear. I am not confident that this is an authentic signature. Quote
Jean Posted July 8, 2018 Report Posted July 8, 2018 Graham, The signature is not «satisfying » I entirely agree with Ray, it looks as it has been added and very poorly. Check again with commercial sites showing tang signatures. Quote
SteveM Posted July 8, 2018 Report Posted July 8, 2018 Looks like its heading in the direction of 備前國長船与三・・・ Bizen no kuni, Osafune Yosō… which points to Bizen-no-kuni, Osafune Yozōzaemon-no-jō etc.. Look here for a papered version. http://iidakoendo.com/6367/ Quote
