(2).Footnotes:日本江戶時代,十七/十八世紀 康繼作 黑漆包鞘打刀Provenance: an important European private collection來源:歐洲重要私人收藏The Yasutsugu School of swordsmiths served the Tokugawa Shoguns for generations throughout the Edo period (1615-1868). The first-generation Yasutsugu, originally named Shimosaka, initially worked in Echizen Province (Fukui Prefecture), where he entered the service of Matsudaira Hideyasu (1574-1607), third son of the Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu (1543-1616), and lord of the domain.Shimosaka went on to serve Shoguns Ieyasu and Hidetada in Edo (Tokyo), receiving the character 'Yasu' in his name from Ieyasu, henceforth known as Yasutsugu. He was also granted permission to sign his swords with the Tokugawa-clan hollyhock crest, a carved mitsuba aoi mon, present on this lot.The first and second generation Yasutsugu were well known for the bold horimono (carving) on their blades. By forging broader swords, they were able to carve larger, more intricate designs on the surface without compromising the strength of the blade. This novel change led to the shift to more decorative horimono, more typically seen in swords of the Edo period. For an example of a sword with a plum branch and bamboo horimono by Yasutsugu I, see M. Ogawa, ed., Art of the Samurai: Japanese Arms and Armor, 1156-1868, New York, Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2009, p.182, no.103.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

(2).Footnotes:日本江戸時代,元治一年(1864年)荘司弥門直勝作 黑漆包鞘打刀Provenance: an important European private collection來源:歐洲重要私人收藏Shoji Yamon Naokatsu was the student and successor of Jiro Taro Naokatsu (died 1858) and the adopted son of Taikei Naotane (1778-1857). At the close of the Edo period, Japan's military class showed a general inclination toward traditional samurai values, possibly a reaction to a rapidly failing feudal system. Clinging to the 'old ways', swordsmiths began producing blades reminiscent of relics from the past. This sword, forged at the very end of the feudal period shows characteristics more in keeping with some of the robust blades from the Kamakura period (1185-1333) with a wide mihaba, extended kissaki, and slight koshizori.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
