Description
Tsuba from the Momoyama period done in iron sukashi. Design is that of a spoked wheel design done very well. Nice iron patina, and there is some rim work as well. Tsuba of this type are either Kanayama or Koshoami, and both schools utilize good iron in their manufacture. In very good condition, this tsuba should be put through a shinsa, as it is a very nice study piece due to its condition. This is the style used by many samurai during the early Shinto period, the wheel type sukashi pattern is seen on many famous mountings from this time period.
