SalaMarcos Posted August 27, 2015 Report Posted August 27, 2015 My main line of study is tsuba so I don't know so much about other parts of koshirae. This seems to me a a jintachi or handachi koshirae. The saya is in ki urushi mijin nuri style with gold makie. But it's the first time I saw this kind of cloth, weave instead the itomaki. Someone has any ideas? Thank you very much. Quote
Tokaido Posted August 27, 2015 Report Posted August 27, 2015 Hi, simple: the itomaki is missing on this saya. It is customary to place brocade instead of same under the itomaki at the top of the saya and on the tsuka of a traditional itomaki-no-tachi-koshirae. Greetings Andreas Quote
Jussi Ekholm Posted August 27, 2015 Report Posted August 27, 2015 Does it have 1 or 2 ashi (hangers). I think the upper portion is nishiki (brocade). Quote
SalaMarcos Posted August 27, 2015 Author Report Posted August 27, 2015 Thank you very much Andreas! I never thinked that the itomaki was missed, sometimes the easy answer is the only thing that we never mind. Quote
