goo Posted December 16 Report Posted December 16 I took a screenshot of this Tsuba while browsing the Victoria & Albert website some time ago. I would have posted the link but I cannot find it on the site now, it sort of disappeared. Does anyone have an opinion or information on it? I am very much a novice but if I had to guess I would say it is modern, after 1900? It reminds me of lantern glow. Quote

BIG Posted December 16 Report Posted December 16 May be Hirata school gloisonne` enamel work. Design sun, moon, stars ??. The whole tsuba could be an overhelming design. 1 Quote
goo Posted December 16 Author Report Posted December 16 Thanks to John and Peter, it looks like gold and tarnished silver inlay to me. I intend to attempt a copy of this one. 1 Quote
