Thank you for viewing. Traditional Craftsman and "Contemporary Master" Tenryu Kunii, a koma artisan representing Tendo. He is a leading figure in the "Sukashi-bori" technique, one of the few in the country who starts carving koma without sketching. His work is highly regarded as the best koma in Tendo City, the leading shogi koma production area in Japan, and is used in many title matches, such as the Oza match where Yoshiharu Habu, the Lifetime Meijin, won 18 consecutive titles. His work is also highly sought after by many koma collectors. As you can see, the koma feature refined calligraphy, elegant molding, and careful finishing, resulting in a high degree of perfection. Brand new, unused, and stored. There are no scratches, chips, or missing characters. * Number of koma: 41 pieces [1 spare pawn] * Material: Satsuma Hon-tsuge (boxwood) * Includes a box for display.
