Kaga Gotō Koshirae - 1.700,00 €/1,800.00 USD/1,450.00 GBP

[Higo-san]

Dear all

 

I would like to part with some koshirae - the first comes without a tsuba and is a breath-taking Gotō-style koshirae:

 

Magnificent koshirae with a saya lacquered with gold nashiji urushi with scattered cherry blossoms in gold, aokin hiramaki-e and takamaki-e. The tsuka is covered with ray skin and wrapped with a black silk. The fuchi kashirae are made of shakudo with a nanako ground depicting samurai in a pine grove (the kiwame mei Kenjō Saku Mitsuyoshi Kao (顕乗作 光美 [花押]) has to be considered gimei as the work resembles Kaga Gotō). The menuki each in the shape of kabuto. The koiguchi, kurigata and kojiri are made of gold lacquer. The high quality tsunagi is inscribed Mitsuhira (光平 = Heki Mitsuhira) in pencil on the back.

 

Dimenensions:

 

Tsunagi Nagasa: 70.3 cm

Tsunagi Nakago: 21.7 cm

Tsunagi Total length: about 92 cm

 

Asking price: EUR 1,700.00 plus actual shipping costs (varying depending on your location between about EUR 15 up to EUR 80)

 

I am open to reasonable offers - but unfortuantely, I cannot accept trade-ins.

 

Kind regards

 

Chris

ON HOLD - pending funds!

Good.

This one was too tempting in a time of other holiday expenses.

 

Germany keeps getting a lot of my Tosogu-Koshirae money these days.

Lots of excellent collections and collectors there.
