Hello gentlemen

 

I have plans to purchase few tsuba this month. List practically ready. I am pretty confident on most of the items I have picked, but not sure about this one.

 

Would like to see if my estimates are correct.

Photos are not great, but this is all I have.

 

I think this is a Katchushi. Period, possibly early Edo. Motif is Aoi leafs and feathers.

Diameter is 9cm. 

Thank you in advance

Vitaly

Thank you all, gentlemen!

The more tsuba I am looking at, the more nuances come up. Of course, while I am a rookie, some red flags will be overlooked.

When I am in doubt, I will ask. 

And once again I am very grateful for all your help! 

So I will be moving further down the shopping list.

Ok. First one passed. I'd rather skip it

, if there is some doubts.

I hope I did better with this one. Already bought.

Vitaly,

this is a pretty little one! Authentic and signed, so no worries! The corrosion on the lower MIMI (rim) may make it less desirable for some collectors, so I hope that the price was correspondingly low.
