Description
ITEM:
It Comes with certificate of SupeinNihonto. Comes with wood box.
Katana Iron tsuba of openwork circular form (sukashi) featuring a stylized vegetal composition of flowing stems and leaves arranged in an enveloping pattern. The design shows an organic and fluid treatment, with the main motif running along the perimeter and creating a dynamic balance around the seppa-dai.
The surface displays a mature, even dark patina consistent with an antique forged iron guard. The openwork carving is clean, with edges softly rounded by age and handling. The seppa-dai is of classical oval outline, with traditionally shaped hitsu-ana for kozuka and kogai.
Functional wear is visible at the nakago-ana, with evidence of an old fitting adjustment (sekigane possibly lost or greatly reduced), indicating genuine historical mounting and practical use in koshirae. The iron texture and sukashi workmanship point to solid Edo-period craftsmanship.
7,7 x 7,7 cm
