vlado Posted January 10, 2014 Report Posted January 10, 2014 Greetings, I am interested in your opinion in which school coud this menuki be attributed to and what technique coud be called. My guess is shakudo gold iroe material-? technique-? Length- 3,8cm . 3,4cm width- 1,6cm . 1,4cm weight- 5,1g . 4,6g Thank you. Miha G. Quote
vlado Posted January 12, 2014 Author Report Posted January 12, 2014 I think that the menuki is made in the technique called katabori. Gentlemen if you can give some comment on the techniques I would be very happy. Miha G. Quote
Geraint Posted January 23, 2014 Report Posted January 23, 2014 Hi Miha, You suggest that the material is shakudo, which would be first guess for these though the colour for your images is hard to tell. The technique is not katakiri bori, that is engaaving in a surface where the chisel changes angle so that the lines are not regular, many examples available if you search the internet. Menuki are normally made by a different process, have a look at this. All the best. Quote
