H483. Iron Sukashi Tsuba, Geese & Lotus

$495.00

H483. Iron tsuba. 7.7 x 7.8 x .3 cm. The nakago hitsu-ana is .7 x 2.8 cm. Another tsuba from the Skip Holbrook collection. It comes with his collection photo on which he has noted, “Heianjo/Kyo Sukashi? Geese & Lotus. Called Ko Hagi.” Hagi is a town in Nagata Province, also known as Choshu. I think it is nice how the 2nd goose is hard to pick out until you count the gold eyes and legs. Fine thin plate in excellent condition. $495.
