Caracal Posted February 19, 2021 Report Posted February 19, 2021 I need help with these tsuba. Can someone tell me what school it is and other information. Quote
kissakai Posted February 19, 2021 Report Posted February 19, 2021 I'm sure I had samples of these but I can't find any of my records The 1st one is Mount Fujiyama and reflection The 2nd one could be the same or a bobbin I'll recheck my sheets later Both nice tsuba Quote
Spartancrest Posted February 19, 2021 Report Posted February 19, 2021 Similar design listed as Owari https://richardturner.wordpress.com/2011/04/23/owari-sukashi-tsuba-尾張透鍔-2/ Also this one is listed as owari http://www.users.on.net/~coxm/?page=tsubaI_tsuba Itomaki Karakusa tsuba unsigned Koshoami vertical 82.4 mm http://fluorite.sakura.ne.jp/contentspage/kodougu/009_warabite_inome/009.html https://www.barnebys.com/auctions/lot/iron-tsuba-katana-sized-mgj156-rbvn5n0-kz [I managed to find the image, which is no longer available] "Iron Tsuba, Katana sized. Sukashi Tsuba possibly Owari School. Tsuba shows evidence of rusting over the centuries, but still has pleasing appearance." It would appear that the majority of sites believe these designs are Owari in origin with only one example being described as Ko-Shoami. Quote
kissakai Posted February 19, 2021 Report Posted February 19, 2021 I thought the first one may be Shoami Quote
