Kurikata Posted October 10, 2017 Report Posted October 10, 2017 Once again I would like some help from the NMB assistance. I would say this tsuba is Kyo Shoami school. But I al not so sure. What are you views? Quote
Ford Hallam Posted October 10, 2017 Report Posted October 10, 2017 Modern hobbyist work. Most probably Japanese though, based on the nunome-zogan technique. Quote
Kurikata Posted October 10, 2017 Author Report Posted October 10, 2017 Thank you Ford, I am obviously a little bit disappointed as i thought it could be a well preserved end of Edo Tsuba. To better understand what makes the difference between such a modern works and a "real edo" tsuban can you give me some details which make the difference ? I am always keen to learn more from my mistakes. Thank you again Quote
