  1. @wakiboy yup!
  2. I like them both — each set has its own character. And yes, according to the origami, it’s a joint work made at the same time. Sokujo and Teijo were cousins. Sokujo lived a very short life and passed away at the age of 31. His son Renjo was four at the time, so although he was the intended successor, uncle Teijo stepped in to take over the mainline, raising and training Renjo until he came of age. Renjo, assumed the position at 25, becoming the 11th-generation head.
  3. No, I'm sending my collector half instead
  4. Hi Mike, Previous set is NBTHK 67th Juyo..this one is Tokubetsu Hozon with Origami by the 12th gen Goto Mitsumasa.
  5. Well, as you know, they all copied the work of their predecessors, so most of the pieces show similarities with both earlier and later generations. But of course, some are inferior in quality, while others just speak to you. Ones at Eirakudo are very nice as well. @Dereks Menuki and all other mon(shishis) are solid gold.
  6. Hi all, Since I had some time for photos today, I thought I’d share this one as well. A mitokoromono by Sokujo, the 8th-generation mainline Goto. According to the origami, the nanako ground was made by Teijo, the 9th generation. Enjoy!
  7. It's Juyo.
  8. @Ray Singer Nice one Ray! Can't get enough of Hotei. @Curran And Kojo and his father Joshin..Ashikaga vs Nobunaga...First 5 generations really went through a lot..And of course I read the article, twice
  9. Actually, it’s very close to Oda Nobunaga’s set, made by Yūjō. If he knew, I’m sure it would annoy Hideyoshi as well. Or maybe not.
  10. Agree with @Curran...
  11. Thank you, Curran! I knew he didn’t get along with Ieyasu, but I wasn’t aware of the connection to Lone Wolf. I picked it up in Japan from someone well known, along with a Sokujo shishi set, just last week.
  12. Hi all, Just like to share my recent acquisition, a unique Mitokoro-mono by the 5th generation mainline head of the Goto school, Tokujo. He was the eldest son of Kujo, born in 1549 and passed away in 1631. After serving Oda Nobunaga, he became the court chisel master for Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Exhibited at the Tokyo National Museum. Enjoy!
  13. Thank you, Moriyama-san!
