We are excited to invite you to our meeting in London, where we will explore a fascinating aspect of Japanese sword fittings. John Miles will present"Yoshiro and Saburodayu Inlay Tsuba and Demystifying the Hidden Tokei Tsuba."
Yoshiro tsuba, renowned for their intricate brass inlay on iron, represent the refined craftsmanship of the late Muromachi and early Edo periods. These remarkable pieces, often featuring bold geometric patterns or natural motifs, hold historical significance and artistic beauty that continue to captivate collectors and scholars alike.
