Features:

A beautiful large Akasaka tsuba, crafted during the early Edo period, circa 17th century. Composed of a very well forged fine & thick iron plate, this tsuba features a classic famous Kiri-Mon design/motif, made up of well executed sukashi with very fine details. Tekkotsu appear on the mimi/rim.

Very lustrous in appearance, this tsuba exhibits a rich & very deep dark chocolate brown color/patina.

Truly beautiful, this tsuba is in an excellent well-preserved condition, with no damage of any kind without question.

Please note: there is no box included with this tsuba; the box in the photos was for display purposes only.

Sizes : 7.67 cm x 7.56 cm x 7.1 mm thick at seppa-dai & 7.6 mm at rim
