uwe Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 A very nice hoshi-kabuto, obviously of high quality The shikoro was probably replaced at some point, but goes well with the hachi. Wonder about the “Mino-signature”…do you have a picture? Quote
Tengu1957 Posted January 19 Author Report Posted January 19 Uwe , sorry . I swear spell checks changes everything. I did not notice . It's signed Soshu Quote
Tengu1957 Posted January 19 Author Report Posted January 19 Luc , it's signed Soshu. I wasn't paying attention and spell check made a change and I did not catch it. See above images of the signature. Thanks Quote
