Hi again,

I've added a few more images of the group including Kanayama. The Kanayama isn't captured well in the picture here, but long linear bones swirl around the mimi.

Thanks for looking.

Hello Mark, 

I like the one with the bugs very much. Is it still available? How much would shipping to the Netherlands be? ( if it is).

Regards,

Joop

Had a question, but answered it myself.

#4. Suzumushi is sold. 

 

Curran,

The Yatsuhashi looks similar to that in Sasano's silver book. The iron is much nicer than my android snapshot.
