Jorgensen Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 A nice Bushu Ito school tsuba for sale Asking price: $425 (or best offer) Iron, marugata, image of cherry blossoms on floating rafts (hana ikada). Bushū Itō school. The image is one which evokes the harvesting of wood from the forests around Kyoto, bundling the logs into rafts, and floating them down the Kamo River to be sold in Osaka. In the springtime, the cherry blossoms would fall onto the logs, and the site of the logs floating on the river, decorated with Kyoto’s cherry blossoms would delight people along the riverbank. Highlights in gold inlay. Two hitsu-ana (one plugged with shakudō). Mid Edo era. Mei/signature: Mumei School/province: Bushu-Ito Period/age: Edo Measures: 7.30 cm x 6.80 cm x 0.45 cm Certificate: No Included: NO kiri box included Buy or make offer here: https://tsubashi.com...hu-ito-school-tsuba/ Questions? - e-mail me: info@tsubashi.com Quote
