Spartancrest Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 I just received this guard from Japan and was wondering if anyone might have an idea of the School or maker - it is unsigned. I know of a very similar piece in the Cleveland Museum of Art, but that museum has very little by way of information. I am undoubtedly biased but I think mine is in much better condition. Size is 55 mm x 45 mm 2 Quote

Spartancrest Posted January 27, 2022 Author Report Posted January 27, 2022 Bruno: That is very useful information, thank you very much. With that I was able to find this thread - and the images of the menuki which have many of the features found on my tsuba. once again many thanks. 1 Quote
