This is a carved shogi piece by Tosui Sakurai, whose father was Kyokusui, a master of Tendo's high-grade pieces. Before taking the name Tosui, during his time as "Hoichi," he followed his father's teachings to focus solely on carving pieces in order to hone his fundamental carving skills. He thoroughly practiced carving, accumulating experience and mastering exceptional carving techniques. After taking the name Tosui, his work shifted to moriage pieces, and most of his recent works are moriage. In that sense, carved pieces bearing the Tosui mark are considered valuable. The typeface is Kishu (named after Takeuchi Kishu, a strong player from Sakata who was active during the Meiji and Taisho periods), and the wood is Mikurajima boxwood with reddish tiger stripes, giving it a rich texture. There are two extra pawns, and it comes with a Paulownia flat box. *Approximate size (length * width * thickness) King: 32 * 29 * 9 Pawn: 28 * 23 * 7 The condition shows some scratches and signs of use, but overall, it is in good condition (for a used item). I will handle this with sincerity, so thank you for your consideration.
