Thank you Georges - I got more information than expected - I really appreciate this documentation. Bruno P.

Thank you for this very interesting information. In fact apparently, this sentence is very well known. Thank you again Bruno P.

Here , another tsuba with Kanjis to be translated. The tsuba is a Kanji at itself.... But which One ? What is its meaning ? I saw similar tsuba with Monkeys.... As far as the signature is concerned the tag says it might be Mori Hisa. But I cannot recognize these Kanji on this Tsuba. The tag says that this tsuba was sold in 1923 at de Haviland Action in Paris. It has also been in Ernest le Véel collection afterwards. If you can copy me with the catalog pages, I would be more than happy. Thank you for your help. Bruno P.

Thank You Sebastien. I do not have this catalog and it is documentation to bring "History" to this Tsuba. Thank you again Bruno

Thank you for your help . And what about the school? Sorry to insist.... Bruno P.

Hello, I would like some one to helping translating this siganture. I have the first easy Kanji for sure (Masa) but what about the second one ? Is it taka ? Is this Tsuba Somin school? Thank you for your help Bruno P.

Good morning out of France, Sebastien V. was so NMB addicted :D than I couldn't afford not to be a member. Here I am.... I am a Kodogu collector, mainly Tsubas, but interested in all kind of metal inlays, engraving ... I collect them for more than 30 years now and want to continue my way to beter understand Who, When and How Japanese artists did such pieces of art. T Thanks to you members, no doubt that your expertise will help me. See you via this wonderfull forum, in the future.... Best regards Bruno P.
