Jabara Ito Tsuka Decorated With Noh Theater Motifs Gold nad silver iroeJabara ito tsuka with Noh theater sword fittings. Menuki made of shakudo depicting Okina and Sanbaso. Fuchikashira made of shakudo with Noh theater scene. On the fuchi we can see musicans and chorus. On kashira main stage with an actor. Tsuka ito is torn in one place, however it is very tight with no threads moving. I suspect that it was reinforced to keep everything in place. Fuchi has one small crack. Fuchi was signed but signature was removed.
