What Style Of Tsuba Are These?

[Daso]

Sorry, but I wasn't sure what school or style these Tsuba are considered.  One looks like Katchushi but I don't think it is? Both about 3" in diameter.  Thanks, Darius

First one looks like Kumagi or even a bit like Jingo carving to me

Alan, yes it does look very much like a bland version of a Higo Kumagai that I looked up after your comment. You mention that for the first, but I think you meant second Tsuba with the sort of raised star right?. Thanks for your eyes on it. Regards , Darius

Hi Darius,

No I did mean the first tsuba and the second does have that Higo bobbin design but they don't usually have a dote mimi like that one.

I've added some more pictures to see if anyone can clue me in to what style or school if any these might be. They were part of a package of other items I wanted.

Hello,

 

I would said:

First one, a nanban school tsuba

second one, may be an Ito sukashi school tsuba if the line are opened in thin sukashi

[Daso]

Gunome, thank you for the help. The sukashi on the second tsuba (star pattern) are fairly thin. I will look into those schools further. Appreciate it. Regards, Darius
