max_levy Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 I recently bought this cabinet, I know its not a sword, but I attempt to collect anything Japanese I can afford (which isn't much!) I don't really know much about it, the decoration seems quite fine and all the fittings appear to be silver, I assume Meiji export. Can anyone shed any light on it? It's about 2 foot across about a foot deep and maybe 30/35 inches tall Let me know what you think of it Quote
Toryu2020 Posted November 6, 2010 Report Posted November 6, 2010 I would agree Meiji export, They did a lot of this parquet (sp?) stuff in the Hakone area - not sure I have any useful information beyond that. Not my taste but certainly an eyeful! -t Quote
estcrh Posted November 7, 2010 Report Posted November 7, 2010 I think a sword rack would fit just about right on top (along with a sword or two). Quote
max_levy Posted November 7, 2010 Author Report Posted November 7, 2010 haha! That was my intention when I bought it! just need the swords to go on it now, damn money! Quote
