FT-181 Daisho Kamiyoshi Tsuba

Excellent Dai-Sho set of Higo tsuba made by the famous Kamiyoshi School.

The design of Musashino is a very classic and popular theme. Musashino is the area where many great stories and battles were derived. The grassy plains of Musashino have been depicted on sword fittings for many hundreds of years. I have a nice Tetsugendo tsuba in my own collection of the theme. A daisho is rare with this theme, but a Higo Dai-Sho is even more rare. The iron is classic Kamiyoshi with their excellent special patina color resembling, Yokan (a Japanese sweet and a characteristic of Kamiyoshi and Hayashi Schools). These tsuba are excellent in both condition and quality. NBTHK certified as a Dai-Sho.
