[ Highlight ] : A ko-dachi sword by Osafune Morimitsu, this sword, while suri-age, has a good shape and is of high quality, with well-harmonized jigane iron and hamon blade pattern. Morimitsu is known, along with Yasumitsu, as one of the leading craftsmen of Oei Bizen. The koshirae is a good shade of ebony. Among the plants and trees that have been praised by writers and artists, the subjects are the plum, chrysanthemum, orchid and bamboo, all of which have the noble taste of a sovereign. A passage from the Xiaochouyu Ji by 'Chin Kei- Ju' from the late Ming dynasty of China accompanies the painting praise.

[ Conditions ] Excellent.
