Boshi is Midarekomi and turns back round.<\/p>\n<p>Special feature: Minosuke Fuji Naotane was born in Ansei 7 in Dewa Kuni Yamagata, and his real name is Shoji Minobei, and he was named also as Taikei. In around Bunsei 4, he had succeeded to Chikuzen Daijo. In Kaei 1, he had moved to Kyoto and became Mino Kami. He moved to Edo when he was still young and became a pupil of Suishinshi Masahide. And later he worked under Akimoto Ko like his master, and learned with Hosokawa Masayoshi. The date when he became a pupil of Suishinshi Masahide is unsure, but because we can find Mei of \u201cShoji Naotane Kansei 13 Shogatsu Hi\u201d with the product made by him at the age of 23, it could be estimated around Kansei 11 or 12. And he had to be independent around Bunka 1. He passed away on 7th of May, Ansei 4, at the age of 79.<\/p>\n<p>Koshirae:<br \/>\nTsuba; 4 Mokko-shaped Shakudo Tsuba. Patterns are engraved. At the center part, plants and patterns are engraved with Shakudo.<br \/>\nFuchikashira: On Shakudo plate, arabesque patterns are engraved.<br \/>\nSaya: painted with Shu and black.<br \/>\nMenuki: On Shakudo plate, Kuyo-mon family crest is engraved.<br \/>\nKojiri: On Shakudo plate, woods are engraved.<br \/>\nKurigata: On Shakudo plate, arabesque patterns and Kuyo-mon family crests are engraved. <\/p>\n<p>From Aoi Art: He travelled 3 times a year, so we find many works with Mei engraved in different places. He started his travel from Mishima Shrine in Izu, and through Nirayama, Shuzen Temple, Enshu Hamamatsu, Ise Hisai, Ise Shrine, and got back to Edo. Naotane could both Bizenden and Soshuden, and he was good at both. Bizenden works of him tend to have Utsuri like this work. It is very rare for the works made in the late Edo period to have Utsuri like this.<\/p>\n<p>NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Token<br \/>\nWith Box<br \/>\nAoi Art estimation paper: whole Oshigata<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123_p.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123_p.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"90%\" height=\"90%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123-4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123koshirae.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123koshirae.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20%\" height=\"20%\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123paper-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aoijapan.com\/img\/sword\/2022\/22123paper-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"40%\" height=\"40%\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ordering number: AS22123 Katana in Shirasaya with Koshirae with box (NBTHK Tokubetsu Hozon Token) Signature :Soushi Chikuzen Daijo Taikei Naotane(Kao) \u8358\u53f8\u7b51\u524d\u5927\u63be\u5927\u6176\u76f4\u80e4\uff08\u82b1\u62bc\uff09\u3000 Bunsei 12 Nen 2 Gatsuhi \u6587\u653f\u5341\u4e8c\u5e74\u4e8c\u6708\u65e5\u3000 Shinshinto: Saijo saku: Musashi (We divide 4 sections for each sword as Saijyo saku, Jyojyo saku Jyo saku and regular saku) This sword belongs to Jyo Jyo saku [&#8230;]\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":[],"class_list":["post-26067","product","type-product","status-publish","hentry","product_cat-katana-en","product_cat-masterpiece","product_cat-sword-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/26067","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sword-auction.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
