Yves55 Posted December 10, 2022 Report Posted December 10, 2022 One of my first tsuba, bought past century... Dimensions: 72,2 x 68,4 x 4,7 mm - Weight: 88 gr - iron For the moment there is a very similar tsuba for sale on Catawiki ( https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/64470241-tsuba-iron-japan-azuchi-momoyama-period-1573-1603 ). They date it as azuchi-momoyama period. As far as this is correct (?), should mine be from that same period? Quote
Spartancrest Posted December 10, 2022 Report Posted December 10, 2022 Yves, I think that design is called "Smooth Dragon" - no scales on the body only the belly. The Catawiki one I doubt is as old as they advertise it to be, looks Edo to me. Similar layout to a "Rain Dragon" one I have. Quote
