JPGH Posted July 4, 2019 Report Posted July 4, 2019 Hello everyone, Can someone please help me identify the age and possible maker of this, Tsuba? If it's junk, no big deal........I purchased it from a seller who thought it was "antique door fixture parts" so I don't have much into it. Thank you all in advance for your time and thoughts. Regards, Jo 1 Quote
C0D Posted July 4, 2019 Report Posted July 4, 2019 Not junk, It's a katchushi/tosho from the thickness most likely Edo period. Patina is good 1 Quote

TETSUGENDO Posted July 4, 2019 Report Posted July 4, 2019 i guess you mean dragonfly Speaking of the obvious, after 3,059 posts Chris knows it's a dragonfly, obviously! -S- p.s.- as for date, looks 18th century to me. Quote

TETSUGENDO Posted July 4, 2019 Report Posted July 4, 2019 Call me an optimist, I'm hopeful he would figure it out unassisted, but thoughtful nonetheless. -S- Quote
