【Issho Sakuyama Kaseki Shogi Pieces】 Mikura-jima Boxwood Formed as a set from a single log. [New Product, Brand New] Mikura-jima boxwood with excellent color and grain, thinly mottled, top grade, brand new hand-carved pieces by Issho. Issho's carved pieces are characterized by a unique carving method where the chisel is pushed forward with the thumb, creating extremely precise carvings as if "writing calligraphy with a chisel." The carvings, which reproduce even the finest details, have a completely different style and flavor from rough, linear carvings. The color matching is perfect. Beautiful straight grain, the wood is large, easy to handle, and has a presence. Addendum Issho's pieces are featured on pages 30-33 of the June 2016 issue of Shogi Sekai as "Master Craftsmen of Today," alongside Ryuji Kodama, Chikufu, and Shuhou.
