3 Pairs of Tsuba
2017/01/15
3 sets of tsuba. Daisho same design
The condition is not very good but if it is cleaned neatly,
those will look better. Please use a clean cloth to avoid touching
directly at the engraved parts. Please wipe the tsuba with a cloth
and the rust texture will turn out beautiful. Please enjoy viewing those
tsuba at this holiday season.
