Fine CLOISONNE Japanese Tanto Sword -Antique -Meiji -Priced Just Lowered to $3500 from $4000

[matthewbrice]

1 antique Japanese Meiji Period cloisonne tanto sword available.  This very fine antique cloissonne mount Japanese tanto sword would make an important addition to any collection.

 

This tanto is unsigned.  It has a genuine Japanese blade.  

Cloisonne koshirae/mounts are difficult to find without damage, most have significant damage—and this one has no damage at all!  The fittings on this cloisonne tanto are all intricately hand-carved brass.

 

The blade measures 8 5/8" (21.9 cm) from blade tip to the bottom of the notch in the habaki.

 

$3500 plus postage (and PayPal or cc fee)

I've seen them at sword shows, they go for about that price without a sword. This dealer seems to come up with others from tome to time. 

Does the dealer have a return policy? 

[matthewbrice]

Hello Baba.  Yes, I have a 3-day inspection/return policy.  Thank you for your interest.

Interesting koshirae for sure. I for one have never seen something like this but am always intrigued by cloisonne works (especially Hirata tsuba).

 

Some unrequested advice - I would suggest expanding the listing here on the board with additional photos and or information to up the success rate.
