Marcin Posted 4 hours ago Report Posted 4 hours ago I would like to hear your opinion about this item. I'm unable to see clearly If mei indicates tsuba being casted. I didn't bought it. Looks like fake copy similar to daisho set from ex Haynes collection. Tsuba mentioned in title https://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/a-fine-19th-century-Japanese-meiji-period-onlaid--e5e8567ccc Quote

Agreed. The arrows in particular are awfully depicted as is the bow of the ship. I find it hard to believe a Japanese artisan would come up with imagery like this. Edited 2 hours ago by Lewis B Quote
