andreYes Posted October 1, 2021 Report Posted October 1, 2021 Let me boast a little bit "Nihon No Bi" is an annual exhibition in Moscow devoted first of all to Ikebana and Suibokuga arts. This year it was expanded and included other Japanese arts like kimono, temari, kamono and origami. There was a showcase with three katana as well. I had an opportunity to participate with several tsuba, so I had two small showcases. 10 2 Quote
Rich S Posted October 1, 2021 Report Posted October 1, 2021 Andrey Looks like a wonderful exhibition, even better than the Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington. Quote
John A Stuart Posted October 2, 2021 Report Posted October 2, 2021 Tell us what swords were displayed please and more about which tsuba you picked and why. Curious minds want to know. John Quote

andreYes Posted October 2, 2021 Author Report Posted October 2, 2021 John The information about the swords I have: 1. Hidemitsu Osafune, Bushu province, 1388 year. 2. Yamashiro-no Daijo Fujiwara Kunitsugu, 1615-1628 3. Tsuguie, Bitchu province, 1185-1332 That is all, I even do not know who is the owner. He is very modest About the tsuba I chose for display. Very few people here know what is it, even among the Japanese culture lovers. So I triyed to show maximum diverse items, various schools, variuos technics, and most decorative. I was limited by the fact that I prefer iron with plant motif Here is the full list: If interested, here is the link to the photogallery of the exhibition's official photographer, Alexader Dvoriankin: https://realbigant.com/chronicle/sey-ryo-chistota-i-prohlada 6 Quote

andreYes Posted October 3, 2021 Author Report Posted October 3, 2021 Thanks for the kind words George, thank you! I should upgrade the website, and add some more tsuba, but never have enough free time I hope someday I'll do it. 2 Quote
