FUKANOBU KAMIYOSHI


Return to Tsuba Collective
Provenance: Elliott Long Not For Sale
"Iron base chrysanthemum flower shape with rounded rim. It is a beautiful design reminiscent of the flower haze when the cherry blossoms are dancing. Very elaborate and ornate work.
According to tradition, the Kamiyoshi school was entrusted by the Hosokawa clan with preserving the secret techniques of the Hayashi school, which were transmitted to Juhei, the first-generation Kamiyoshi master. Fukanobu was Juhei's son and successor.
It is of good composition and a serious work of great skill and sense. Large tsuba of this size are rare and of this design." (Haynes & Long)
