T452. Unusually Thick Iron Tsuba

$275.00

T452.  Iron tsuba, quite thick.  7.2 x 7.3 x .9 cm on the rim (the plate is .5 cm).  The nakago hitsu-ana is .9 x 2.7 cm.  I think this is a very interesting tsuba, and very well made.  The thick plate tapers a bit before it disappears in the applied, heavy rim; think about the skill necessary to pull this off.  I like also the plain copper plugs in the ryo-hitsu: nice touch.  The nakago hitsu-ana is a bit wider than usual; love to know which blade this was mounted to.  $275.
