  1. another interesting one (Bushu) : http://world.seiyudo.com/product/tu-041220/
  2. I thought mine was Aizu Shoami....
  3. very nice indeed. Is this kozuka mumei?
  4. For my education,I would be interested in knowing which one are considered being overpaid and which one are considered as a good deal from the buyer perspective?
  5. Results have been published:https://www.tessier-sarrou.com/catalogue/113434?
  6. pure plain silver
  7. my new one very much scratched
  8. Thanks Curran. This is the conclusion I was afraid to come before reading your appraisal.
  9. Thank you Jonathan and Kirk, Kyoya Akinobu sounds a litlle bit weird. There is an "Akinobu" in Haynes under reference H00050.0. But there is no mention of a family name being Kyoya. .... I'll wait for more NMB insight if any ! Thank you again
  10. Hi, I have difficulties to read this signature . I suceeded to find 明信 But how to read these kanji : AKINOBU ? And what about the two first Kanji (Family name)? Thank you for your help
  11. Hi Bob, I found your kozuka in the H. Seymour Trower catalog under reference 1627, but without illustration.
  12. Noh mask ans music instruments..... in line withe Dale's tanto tsuba
  13. For the N° 33 design of a koto , a description in the "Token Bijutsu - october 1999" states that it is a reference to the necessity for gentlemanly flexibility.
  14. A great thank you to both of you.... Both Suke Mitsu and Yuzo sound very much as great names for kinko artists.
  15. Hi, I have a nogawa shop bronze vase signed 祐三 祐 can be read Suke or Suku yu and 三 can be read either San , Zo or MI(tsu) Can you help me in translating this signature ( Suke Mitsu ?) Thank you Bruno
  16. This tsuba design is of Chokwaro sennin . According to a Japanese legend Chokwaro sennin (Chinese sage) could summon the magic horse out of his gourd to be transported wherever he wanted. The tsuba itself is of poor quality (Shoami school).
  17. Left side is Masatoshi signature but I have difficulties with the 2 kanjis on the right side. Anyway , a beauifull tsuba.
  18. Very classical and frequent style of a myoga mon tsuba (Japanese ginger - nabeshima clan) :https://www.aoijapan.net/tsuba-mumeiunsigned-crossed-myoga-design/
  19. Please refer to this thread:
  20. Kurikata

  22. Bob, it is said that he is from the Bushu tradition. (http://nihontocraft.com/Kunishige_Kinko_Tsuba.htm) Best regards
  23. My guess is Fujiwara Kunishige (Haynes H03649). I really would like to have this one in my collection !
  24. This artist is referenced in Haynes.
