SURUGA


Return to Tsuba Collective
 
Provenance:   Robert E. Haynes Under Study
"This large tsuba is reminiscent of the Higo "Hirata Hikozo" as it is fitted with an Odawara rim made of the finest iron and pure silver . It is a simple design, but the exquisite iron base is thick and sticky, making it a masterpiece. The sekigane is confirming the 'Suruga' classification. The rim is crafted with a nice atmosphere and rotates as per the rules." (Haynes)

8.43cm x 8.37cm x 0.40cm
