RRCOBRA Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 I found this on the web years ago but I have no idea what book this came from and I would be very interested to know what it says. My interest is that I have a cast tsuba that I believe is the same as the one represented here. I believe it wss either made for export or it is moderen and I hope this page can answer that question. I know it is not the best image but maybe somebody will recognize the book it came from. Thanks in advance. Quote
k morita Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Hi, You have already got the answer (file name: fire Myochin). This Tsuba expresses the kanji character "Hi" (fire) 火. Quote
RRCOBRA Posted September 3, 2010 Author Report Posted September 3, 2010 Yes but does the page say anything about the age of the piece? Quote
k morita Posted September 3, 2010 Report Posted September 3, 2010 Hi, Middle Edo period, Tosa Myochin Munetoshi. Quote
