Q140. Gasaku (Joint Work) Iron Sukashi Tsuba
$255.00
Q140. Iron tsuba with gold nunome highlights. 7 x 7.4 x .3 cm at the rim (.45 cm at the seppa dai). The nakago hitsu-ana is .8 x 2.6 cm. Markus Sesko has translated the signature for me:
Sōryūsha Masayoshi (想⿓舎・正義)
Banzai Tsuguhide tsukuru (萬歳・継秀造)
[Translator’s note: This appears to be a joint work, with Tsuguhide forging the plate and Sōryūsha Masayoshi
making the tsuba. Banzai means “Long live the Lord/Master”]
Beautiful work here and in excellent condition. The gold is meant to be discontinuous; little or none of it is missing. $255.
