Oda Nobutada was the eldest son of [[Oda Nobunaga]]. He fought in many of his father's campaigns once he had come of age, and by [[1575]] was trusted to lead on his own. At that time, Nobunaga granted him [[Gifu castle]] and authority over [[Mino province|Mino]] and [[Owari province]]s.<ref>Morgan Pitelka, "Name and Fame: Material Objects as Authority, Security, and Legacy," Mary Elizabeth Berry, Marcia Yonemoto (eds.), ''What Is a Family?: Answers from Early Modern Japan'', University of California Press (2019), 112.</ref>

Nobutada was responsible for bringing down the [[Takeda clan|Takeda's]] [[Iwamura castle]] in 1575 in a two-part siege and later joined [[Tsutsui Junkei]] in forcing [[Matsunaga Hisahide]] to commit suicide in [[1577]] at Shigizan. In [[1582]] he led an army into [[Shinano province|Shinano]] as part of the invasion of the Takeda lands and besieged [[Takato castle]]. He was in Kyoto when [[Akechi Mitsuhide]] rose against his father and killed him at the Honnoji. Nobutada was surrounded at [[Nijo castle|Nijô castle]] and committed suicide.

Having received most of his father's most prized treasures in 1575, Nobutada was now given his prized collection of tea implements as well; this was a notable demonstration of Nobunaga's confidence in his son, as these treasures were symbols of cultivation and legitimacy significant enough that [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]] would take pains in [[1615]] to (re)gain as many of them as he could from the ruins of [[Osaka castle]].<ref name=name112/>
