Beautiful Wakizashi Nihonto signed “Harima Daijo Sigetaka” from late XVI or early XVII century in excellent condition with a complete koshirae of great beauty and quality. The sword is certified with NBTHK kicho origami. The blade is in perfect condition with a beautiful hamon. The koshirae is complete and all parts match. A work of art. The Saya is finished in mother of pearl and orange lacquer and with an inlaid kojiri. The Fuchi, Kashira and tsuba have aquatic motifs with Koi carp. A rare motif to see on koshiraes and even more so with this great quality and detail. Made in bronze with gold and silver inlay. The tsuka has been designed without tsuka ito, a style that became fashionable among the high feudal lords and samurai during part of the Edo period. An excellent piece worthy of the best museums in Europe.
The blade is in old japanese polish remaining in good condition, the jihada of the steel is detailed and full of details to appreciate. A masterpiece Worthly a museum and a great addition to any private collection.
Blade is in very good condition due to aging. Not hagire and not fatal damage, of course. This is a japanese weapon so have a real historical value. This is a weapon with centuries, not machine crafted so can be minor movements of saya, tsuka, tsuba, etc. Because of dilatation, humidity, etc. and little damages propers of his age like small rust, scratches, etc.. Sold as is.
All my swords are originals, imported from japan and Europe from the best dealers and collectors during many years of collection and passion.
