Full solid silver tachi mounts emblazoned throughout with Tokugawa mon on a fine nanako ground. Even the six sepia are silver. Three piece tachi tsuba ensuite as are the menuki and the ashi. The saya of fine lacquer with 16 raised hiramakie Tokugawa mon. The tsuka with white and gold decorated silk brocade.

This is a truly superb tachi with a seldom equaled visual and artistic impact. Condition is truly remarkable as is the quality of the koshirae. Would be extremely difficult to upgrade.
