    Description

    Antique Japanese Dai Sho two tsuba set, Katana and Wakizashi tsuba/sword guards. Made of iron with brass inlay in the pattern of antique Japanese weights. These weights were called tael and were used on scales; please see the last picture as an illustration. They are attracted to a magnet. Dai/katana size tsuba measures 85mm (over 3.25 inches) by 78mm by 5mm thick, weighs 154 grams. The Sho/wakizashi size tsuba measures 71mm by 62mm, weighs 102 grams.  A true original set of antique iron tsubas, with a nice patina. They have previously mounted to swords.
    Please see my other tsuba auctions. I ship in the US by USPS First Class Mail in a padded envelope. I will ship internationally, but only through the eBay Global Shipping program. Returns are accepted and questions are always welcome.
