Jesta Posted September 27 Report Posted September 27 I am off for a short trip to Osaka and Kyoto. Are there any particular shops I should drop into to look for tsuba or other pieces of koshirae? Quote
Spartancrest Posted September 27 Report Posted September 27 You might find Tsu da ro in Gion district in Kyoto - it is both a restaurant and antique shop. Closed Monday and Tuesday open from 13.00 - 18.00 Address is 570-121 Gionmachi minamigawa, Higashiyama-ku Kyoto 605-0074 http:/www.tsudaro.com No link to the antques, but I bought two tsuba there a few years ago. http://www.teramachi-art.jp/en/shop-info/antiques-center/ 1 1 Quote
Baka Gaijin Posted September 27 Report Posted September 27 (edited) Kuraya Hashimoto just down from Nijojo Mae station on a corner opposite Nijo Castle. 408-29 Ikemotocho, Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto, 604-8302, Japan Very friendly family run shop selling Swords and Sword related items. The owner has a good sense of humour and I've found him to be most helpful. Edited September 27 by Baka Gaijin 3 Quote
