Description

This vintage Japanese Go board is crafted from katsura wood, known for its light weight and fine grain, making it ideal for a smooth and durable playing surface. Standing 11 inches high, this board provides a substantial presence and stability during play. Katsura wood, sourced from the katsura tree native to Japan, is prized for its workability and resistance to warping.

The Go game, originating from ancient China, is a strategic board game where two players alternately place black and white stones on a grid to capture territory and surround their opponent's pieces. This set includes stones made of slate (black) and clam shells (white), providing a classic and authentic playing experience. The Go board is accompanied by a kiri wood cover, ensuring protection and longevity. This set is not only functional but also a beautiful representation of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and the timeless appeal of the game.
