Can anyone help with the name of this form?

The closest I can find is Shippo but it I'm not sure

Any other information would help such as a date/school but with such a basic tsuba I know this is a tall order assuming that it is not a repro

It is made of copper and the size is 68 x 68 x 4mm

Hi Grev UK,

 

Here is a tsuba in my collection with the similar simple design. The design is refereed to as shippo, shippo-mon, or itomaki Japanese. Your tsuba looks like minor variation of this basic design and is likely a copper reproduction of an original one that was made of iron.

 

 

 

Yours truly,

David Stiles
