Brian Wolfe Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Hello EVerone, Here is a 5 inch bowl and 4 3/4 inch sake cup cover that I would like your opinions on. There are no markings on the cup or bowl but the sake cup features a t'suba and other guard parts of a katana. This would lead me to think along the lines of a martial theme. Do you think this would have been made during the war years. The dealer had a tag that he made stating it was from the WWI or WWII period. I would think if it were from either period it would be the Second World War and not the first. What do you think? Regards Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fukuoka Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Just by the pictures, it appears to be post-war. Of course, swords and tsuba are quite popular even today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Wolfe Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 Hi Rich, I was thinking that these larger items were probably post war but I had never seen any before and the total price made them attractive. Speaking of attractive, my wife said that she would like them if they were not going to the collection so a rare case of win, win for me. Once more, thank you for you help.
